When you make an outright, unrestricted gift to United Way, you are choosing to help the largest number of people by providing a full range of caring through more than 250 programs, like the Switchboard of Miami, Inc. Community conscious volunteers give their time to review agency budgets and analyze the cost effectiveness of each agency. They also review needs and distribute funds, ensuring your money will be well spent. With an outright gift you:
- Maximize the impact of your donation
- Turn every $1 into $2.41 worth of help
- Improve and strengthen the most lives in our community
- Deliver bottom-line, measurable results, like providing;
- 10 days of child care ($100 per child) for 1,180 children
- 393 families with a $300 grant toward rent, mortgage, utility and food expenses
- 59 women with $2,000 worth of domestic violence assistance
- 23 families with permanent housing for one year ($5,000 per family)
United Way focuses on our entire community. Your outright, unrestricted gift has the greatest impact on building partnerships, bringing people together, addressing social issues and demonstrating how MDC "Lives United".
