Non-Discrimination Policy
On September 22, 1995, the United Way of Greater Newark Board of Trustees adopted an anti-discrimination policy as a component of its annual allocations process.

United Way of Greater Newark has an ongoing commitment to embrace diversity in all aspects.

United Way of Greater Newark endeavors to be a model of diversity and inclusion by embracing differences in race, religion, gender, disability, nationality, age, sexual orientation and ethnic background. Our organization values diversity and realizes that it is a critical component to our successes and the changing needs of our community.

This organization aspires to ensure that our volunteers and staff broadly reflect the diversity of the community we serve. However, there are transitional situations which change the ethnic make-up of our employees and Board of Trustees as people leave and new people are recruited. We are an equal opportunity employer and strive to recruit the best staff and board we can based on skills, experience and level of commitment to organizational goals.

United Ways must file IRS Form 990 annually in a timely manner. Large United Ways will submit their entire IRS Form 990 to United Way of America annually.

► Comply with all other applicable legal local, state, and federal operating and reporting requirements (e.g., nondiscrimination, Sarbanes-Oxley Act, USA Patriot Act).
