Now more than ever, our community needs your help
Our world has changed. And for so many in our community, their already difficult challenges have become worse.
When the health and economic crisis hit, United Way was at the forefront – part of a group of community partners who led the way in collaborating immediate response. But it is evident there is no quick fix. It will take time and all of us working together, LIVING UNITED, in order to build a better tomorrow and more resilient community.
Because what we do together today, determines tomorrow.
With your help, we can provide brighter tomorrows for thousands of people in our community through dozens of essential programs United Way funds. For…
- Our neighbors who have lost their only source of income
- Young children who aren’t reaching developmental milestones
- Students who lack the support to succeed in school
- Families who need healthcare, but can’t afford it
Your gift will be carefully invested to ensure it makes the greatest impact through programs that are proven to make a lasting difference.

Planned Giving
Making a planned gift offers the opportunity to give back to your community now and beyond your lifetime. With planned giving, you can achieve personal and financial goals while leaving a legacy that will benefit all of Southwestern Indiana for generations to come. A planned gift is a gift of capital which is not usually made from your current income. Planned gifts can be given immediately (such as a gift of stock or real property), or deferred (such as a bequest or life insurance policy).
We would be happy to discuss your planned giving options. In addition, we strongly encourage you to contact your attorney or financial advisor to obtain information about how planned giving will affect your specific financial situation.
