Peter Theisen
President/CEO
He’s lived here for over 30 years and has spent more than 20 of those at United Way. Peter grew up in Seattle, but chose a life in Bellingham for its small town sense of community while still boasting big city amenities. We like that Peter has worn a variety of hats for United Way, which allows him to see all the angles. He first served as a loaned executive, then as Director of Planning and Allocations, then VP, and now as President/CEO. He’s just as multi-talented in his personal life and is no stranger to the mountain biking, hiking, and kayaking scenes. He lives United by bringing people together to make the world a better place.
