		Thanks to our Corporate Cornerstones Program which underwrites our administrative cost, 100% of the money you donate will go to help the people in this community who need it most. None of your donation goes to pay for administration.. We do have administrative costs but because of our extensive use of volunteers, we are proud to report that our administrative cost (12.7%) is among the lowest of most major charities and is actually less than most agencies in this community. For more information about our finances, please visit the "Accountability" portion of our site. Open, Competitive Process UWCNM is a non-political organization which exists to bring people together around the issues they can agree upon.
