THIS MAY RESULT IN NET INCOME OR A DEFICIT DEPENDING ON THE TIMING OF WHEN FUNDS ARE RAISED AND EXPENDED. THE FORWARD-FUNDING MODEL ENSURES THE AGENCY HAS COMMITTED FUNDS ON HAND EACH YEAR TO FUND THE GRANTS AND OPERATIONS PROPOSED IN ITS ANNUAL BUDGET. UNITED ARTS ACTIVELY RAISES FUNDS FOR ITSELF AND THE REGION'S ARTS AND CULTURAL ORGANIZATIONS THROUGH ITS ANNUAL COLLABORATIVE FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN.
