Workplace campaigns are United Way’s primary means of fundraising. Giving at the workplace is an easy and effective way to help employees make a difference and show them that their workplace is actively supporting the local community’s most important issues. Employees of a company are given an opportunity to support United Way by donating a portion of their paycheck. Spreading giving throughout the year via employee payroll deduction makes it easier to increase someone’s donations while still staying within their personal budget. People often find it easier to contribute a small amount each pay period than to contribute the same sum of money all at once.

If you’re holding an event, such as a 5K Race, a Pickleball Tournament, etc., you can easily send proceeds to United Way of Southwest Michigan. We even have our own giving platform to use so you don’t have to collect information.
