Welcome to the United Way Planned Giving

Thank you for your interest in the United Way. Our hope is to serve you and your family with helpful information. We have an increasing number of friends at the United Way who now are benefiting from life income gifts, gift annuities and other plans. Thank you for taking the time to explore the benefits of gift planning. For more information, please contact your local United Way or the United Way of America Planned Giving Department.

IRA

If you're looking for a great and unique way to support United Way, you should consider a tax-free direct gift from your IRA! Congress extended legislation that allows you to make tax-free contributions from your IRAs. To benefit from this legislation you must be 70 ½ and it only applies to direct contributions from your IRA.
