It takes both time and money to make a significant difference in communities across America. For nearly 120 years, United Way has been the leader in raising both individual and corporate investments that are, in turn, used to make a difference in people’s lives. There are a variety of ways you can donate to United Way.
First and foremost, you can donate to your local United Way to ensure your contribution is used to benefit those in need where you live. We’ve made it quick and easy for you to make a donation to your local United Way with just a few short keystrokes. Enter your zip code to find your local United Way then follow the instructions under DONATE ONLINE and your investment will be sent directly to your local United Way. If you’d rather donate by mail, contact your Local United Way to learn where to send your gift.
You can also choose to have your contribution benefit one of United Way’s two national initiatives: Success By 6/Born Learning or 2-1-1. If you’d prefer to have your donation benefit either of these programs, select your preferred program.
Planned giving is another way to ensure your support of United Way in the future. Planned gifts allow donors to make a significant impact on those in need over an extended period of time. Additionally, there are certain benefits from planned giving such as:
- Reducing your taxes
- Increasing your income
- Conserving your family's wealth
- Fulfilling your charitable goals
- Reflecting your special interests

a staple of United Way for
decades. In fact, we’re often associated with coining the phrase, “I gave at the office.” Read
