You can choose where your United Way donation goes

“Did you know you can designate how United Way spends your money? Even if you do not see the charity of your choice on the United Way Designation Form, you can still designate money to your charity if it is a 501c3 and located within a 100 mile radius of Kansas City. Just write it in when you complete your E-Way donation or on the paper pledge form.
