Strategic Partnerships Cincinnati Works is a United Way Agency Partner with a mission to eliminate poverty through employment, presenting a strong alignment with corporate social responsibility initiatives and potential for expanded partnerships with employers seeking community impact and workforce development programs.

Targeted Employer Outreach The organization serves entry level employers and unemployed or underemployed job seekers, offering free services to both sides and a lifetime membership for job seekers who stay employed or active. This creates ongoing engagement opportunities with local employers for talent pipelines, internships, and paid training programs.

This opens doors for co-funding, strategic initiatives, and sponsored employment pathways.

Data and Tech Enablement Utilizing a tech stack including Salesforce, Classy, and open graph tools suggests readiness for donor data management, CRM-based employer engagement, and scalable online fundraising campaigns. There is an opportunity to propose integrated technology solutions that streamline program delivery and impact reporting.
