Help Ottawa County Win: To GIVE, ADVOCATE or VOLUNTEER in your community, go to www.ottawaunitedway.org FOREWORD The VISION of Greater Ottawa County United Way is that all Ottawa County citizens should have the opportunity to achieve their full human potential. To realize that vision, we support, develop and implement a range of impact strategies that improve lives and create stronger communities. One of the core impact strategies is this Community Assessment. The Community Assessment is designed to identify pressing and prevalent issues within the health and human services in Ottawa County. This Community Assessment Report is published every three years and is used by a wide spectrum of community leaders and organizations. It also provides benchmarks to gauge progress and foster community engagement around meeting the community’s needs. As it has done for the past 13 years, Greater Ottawa County United Way began this process by seeking the data Liz DeLaLuz Vice President of Community Impact needed to create a framework within which to make decisions. We contracted with VIP Research and Evaluation as Greater Ottawa County United Way the research arm and facilitator of the Key Stakeholders and Household surveys. Next came the recruitment of the Community Assessment Steering Committee (CASC), many of whom were returning members. Once the Key Stakeholders survey was conducted, the CASC made the decision to maintain the previous impact areas of: Education, Financial Stability, Health and Basic Needs.

  • Voodoo Child 78 (Final)
    VOODOO CHILD 78 (FINAL) HENDRIX WORLDWIDE CATALOG IS NOW UNIVERSAL…Can the world be ready for more Jimi Hendrix? Universal Music certainly believes so as they have recently signed an exclusive administration agreement with Experience Hendrix LLC to manage the catalog of Jimi Hendrix’s music encompassing all territories throughout the world outside the United States. In that global realm, UMPG will represent the catalogue for all commercial opportunities including synchronization licensing for Motion Pictures, TV, Advertising and other mediums. The five-year contract moves the management from Sony ATV, which had managed the catalog since 1998. Upon making the announcement Renzer, Chairman/ CEO, Universal Music Publishing Group (UMPG) commented, "We are so honored that Experience Hendrix has chosen Universal Music Publishing Group to represent their iconic catalogue. Jimi Hendrix's catalogues represents the work of one of the premiere artists of our time and we look forward to working closely with the Hendrix family in representing these amazing songs". Janie L Hendrix President/CEO of Experience Hendrix commented: "We are excited about working with David Renzer and the UMPG staff. Our beloved Jimi has long been recognized as the greatest guitarist ever and the most amazing performer in music history. His ability to expand the frontiers of composition with an almost supernatural sense of melody and rhythm coupled with his truly poetic lyricism has made his catalogue of songs one of the true cornerstones of musical art foreach successive generation. His matchless skill, creativity and imagination on the guitar continue to give those who have come after him an elusive standard to strive for.
