Reasons To Give

Giving back to your community makes you feel good.

The United Way Campaign is the most accepted, tried and proven way to meet the health and human service needs in the community.

The United Way Campaign gives a voice to those unable to reach out for help.

United Way is not just a fundraising federation. United Way facilitates community collaboration, to ensure the community's needs are being addressed, and provides education, information, and referral to the community at large.

Employees who share with others are the most happy and productive.

The annual United Way campaign offers payroll deduction, which makes giving easier.

Only 17% of the working population contributes to the United Way Campaign in Lincoln and Lancaster County.
