New Focus Dept: The United Way of Ottawa has decided to target nine goals, in three areas: Helping children succeed academically. Helping disadvantaged groups engage with the community. Turning lives around, according to CBC. The United Way is focusing on measurable results to ensure programs are actually delivering, said Lawrence Greenspon, who heads the United Way committee that hands out money from the organization's fundraising campaign. "Becoming more focused, we believe, is absolutely key to success in raising more money for their charities good work," he told Radio's Ottawa Morning on Friday and some Ottawa charities fear they will lose their United Way funding as a result of the group's new focus on specific goals and measurable results. Michael Allen, president and CEO of United Way Ottawa, said the new strategy, publicly released this week, will ultimately benefit charities that receive United Way funding.
