WAYS TO GIVE

Through United Way, your contribution will support the building blocks of better lives and stronger communities: a quality education that leads to a stable job; enough income to support a family through retirement; and good health. Please join us and our communities to become a part of the change. Make a contribution and keep this movement going, through:

Individual Giving

Workplace Campaign

Many of our donors choose to participate in their company or organization’s United Way Annual Campaign. Often, they make their donations through payroll deduction over the course of each year. Please check with your organization to find out about your United Way Campaign.

Tocqueville Society

Individuals who contribute $10,000 or more to United Way’s annual campaign are recognized and celebrated as members of the Tocqueville Society. Our Tocqueville Society was established in 1993 under the leadership of Lisa and Leon Gorman. Since that time, membership has grown to 84 households, raising over $900,000 for our community.

United Way understands that you want to make a difference right here in Greater Portland. As a leader in the community, you are invited to join like-minded individuals who share your generosity, compassion, and dedication to build a stronger community and improve lives as members of the Tocqueville Society. Please consider the Tocqueville Society as a place where your investment in the future of our community can begin to work.

Foundation & Planned Giving

Whether you have been a donor for 10, 20, 30 years or more, your commitment to the health and human services network in Greater Portland is inspirational. Our endowment option lets you create your own personal legacy in our community, while still preserving your financial security and providing a future for your family. None of us can know precisely what types of future needs will emerge, we assure you that your gift will be in good hands and used to make Greater Portland a better place to live, work and raise a family.
