ALWAYS UNITED  
Always United gives donors the opportunity to keep United Way’s mission alive for generations to come through continuing annual gifts after retirement or making planned gift arrangements. Donors that are a part of Always United will be able to stay engaged with United Way through special communications, event invitations and opportunities to meet with United Way representatives. 

WORKPLACE CAMPAIGNS 
United Way serves as a trusted corporate social responsibility extension to employers, enabling them to bring their employees together to tackle our community’s most pressing challenges. Workplace campaigns help organizations realize their corporate social responsibility goals, gain exclusive access to unique volunteer opportunities that benefit our entire region, provide rewarding team building while raising funds for critical areas of need, and learn firsthand about our region’s most urgent needs. Through conducting annual fundraising campaigns our corporate partners are essential supporters of our mission. We work with dozens of local and national organizations to help connect employees and senior leadership to community-based programs, ensuring their generosity has the greatest impact across our region.
