United Way of Monroe County CEO Randy Rogers on merger and future of United Way of South Central Indiana

The United Way of Monroe County merged with the United Way of South Central Indiana in September of last year. The two organizations are now operating as United Way of South Central Indiana and will impact Brown, Greene, Lawrence, Monroe, Orange and Owen counties.

President and CEO of the former United Way of Monroe County, Randy Rogers, continues to be the president and CEO for United Way of South Central Indiana.

Rogers was a student at Indiana University Bloomington in the late 1980s and came back to the community in 1995. He then left for Tucson, Arizona, in 2017 for another job. He returned to Bloomington again in mid 2022, excited for his next adventure.

“I came back to take care of my mother and was like ‘alright what's next?’” Rogers said. “I have a love of community, a love of local and I have a love of serving those who are probably thought of as the underserved because I grew up in that way.” 

Rogers took over from Efrat Rosser in October 2022.
