Welcome to United Way of Indian Wells Valley. Our office is located on 206 Balsam St., Ridgecrest, California. I have been the Executive Director since January 2010, but in spite of the short term I have served, I have learned to love the work that United Way and it’s member agencies do.
I believe in this community, from the ”lowest” on the totempole to the ”high-and-mighty” leader. We all have hearts, and this is the time to reach for your wallet through your heart. We will make sure that the agencies we have on our list will benefit from your money, in more ways than one, so let’s get togeter. Now is the time to make the desert blossom with love and charitability.
