Community and public foundations are created to benefit a specific community, population, area of interest or geographic area.  They are governed by a board of private citizens who are involved in the community and who have a vested interest in the mission and the success of the foundation.  The United Way is an example of a community/public foundation.  Each local United Way chapter is independent.  Each chapter sets its own funding priorities and determines its own financial awards.   For United Way information anywhere in the country, go to:  liveunited.org
