Some bittersweet news from our United Way family. 💙

After six years leading UWHMC, our Executive Director Dalton Black will step down on November 20 to become State Director of United Ways of Kansas, the statewide association of 21 local Kansas United Ways.

When Dalton started, UWHMC was a one-person office. Today we're a team of six serving two counties. Along the way, he helped launch the Housing Alliance of Harvey & Marion Counties and the Harvey County Childcare Task Force, and built our award-winning Resource Navigation program, which has connected 196 neighbors to more than 300 referrals for housing, food, childcare and health care in its first year.

"Dalton has grown this organization from a single employee to a team of six and expanded our reach into Marion County. We're grateful for his leadership and proud to see him take on United Way's work for the entire State of Kansas." – Marcia Friesen, Board Chair

The good news? He isn't going far. In his new role, Dalton will keep supporting our work alongside United Ways across the state.

Our programs, grants and coalition work continue with the same team you know, and the board will begin the search for our next executive director soon.

Please join us in thanking Dalton and wishing him well. Drop a note for him in the comments! 👇

Taste of Newton is happening RIGHT NOW, and United Way of Harvey and Marion Counties is serving up soda and water downtown! 🥤

Swing by our booth, grab something refreshing, and keep the good times rolling while you check out all the amazing food from local vendors.

Rode your bike? Head to the Healthy Harvey booth, where you'll find a bike valet thanks to our partners at Walk & Roll Harvey. 🚲 Park it, enjoy the evening, and pick it up when you're done.

We're proud to be a block sponsor through the Healthy Harvey Coalition. Nights like this get our community out, moving and celebrating together, and that's what a healthy Newton is all about.

Come say hi! We'll be here all evening. 🎉

🎉 Help us welcome Cendi Salas to the United Way team!

We are excited to introduce Cendi Salas, our newest Resource Navigator at United Way of Harvey and Marion Counties!

Cendi is currently completing her training and will soon begin working directly with individuals and families across our community, helping them navigate challenges, connect with local resources, and access the support they need.

We're especially excited that Cendi will be able to provide Resource Navigation services in both English and Spanish! This is an important step toward making our services more accessible and ensuring language is not a barrier to getting connected with help.

We are thrilled to have Cendi on board and can't wait for our community to get to know her!

💙 Please join us in giving Cendi a warm United Way welcome!

10/12/2026

Our main office and Resource Navigation office are closed today, Monday, October 12. We will reopen tomorrow, Tuesday, October 13 at 9:00 AM. See you then!

In Harvey and Marion Counties, we look out for each other. And sometimes that starts with one simple question.

Question. Ask how someone is really doing, and ask again if you need to.
Partner. Stay with them and listen. You don't have to have all the answers.
Refer. Help them connect to support, like 988, available 24/7 by call or text.

When neighbors show up for neighbors, no one has to face hard days alone. That's what it means to be united.
