Staff Spotlight: Amy Warrington

This Familiar Faces Friday, we are introducing Amy Warrington. Amy is one of our Kindergarten Countdown Camp Coordinators. Learn more about her role, what she likes to do in her free time and how she connects to programs developed by United Way of Lake County (UWLC)!

When did you start working at UWLC?

I started working at United Way of Lake County at the beginning of June, though I have volunteered with UWLC previously. 

What is your title and role?

I am one of the Kindergarten Countdown Camp Coordinators, which means I go to participating schools and make sure everything is running smoothly, and answer any questions parents may have. 

What made you want to be a part of this organization?

My parents work a lot with UWLC and I think it has a really important mission. I love that UWLC really works in the community and walks the walk as well as talking the talk. 

Which of UWLC’s programs do you connect to most and why?

Probably Success By 6 because it’s the program I work with! This is where it all starts, a basis for future success, and I think that’s really essential. 

What is your favorite part of your job here?

My favorite part of my job here is being able to go out in the community and see the change being made. 

When you are not at work, what kinds of things do you do with your time?

I love to garden, cook and walk my dog. I’m also always up for the occasional Netflix binge.
