Ways to
Give
Payroll
Deduction
If your company runs a United Way campaign, you have the
opportunity to make a pledge through payroll deduction. Payroll
deduction is an easy way to make a large impact, by spreading your gift
throughout the year. You may direct pledge your pledge in several ways.
The choice is yours:
- The
Community Fund - Informed volunteers who understand the
critical
human service needs of the community ensure your gift is efficiently
and
effectively distributed.
- Areas
of Care - Your gift is directed to one of our areas of care:
Nurturing Children and Youth
Strengthening Families and Children
Promoting Health and Healing
Assisting People through Crisis
Fostering Independence for Seniors
Solving Community Problems
- Specific
Agency - Your gift is directed to a United Way member agency
or
another United Way.

Planned
Giving
Meet your financial goals while supporting causes you care about. Would
you like to make a contribution that maximizes your tax deduction and
does the most good? When you give a gift of securities, you avoid
capital gains taxes and brokerage fees. Plus, you can deduct the
present value of the
securities – not just what you paid. That means more help for people in
need, and a bigger savings for you. Please see the Planned Giving page
for
details.
In-Kind
Donations
Want to make a donation of food, clothing, books, furniture, services
or other items? Have a talent you'd like to share? Don't know where to
begin looking for an agency that can use your gifts? Please contact us and we'll help you put them to good
use!
Leadership
Giving
When you make a gift over a certain level, you can choose to
participate in one of our Leadership Giving Programs. Please see the
Leadership Giving page for more information.
