Frequently Asked Questions
- Who decides where my undesignated gift is used in the community?
When donors give undesignated gifts, it allows local volunteers to make
informed decisions about the programs our community needs most. Volunteers
make all the decisions about how the gifts are spent. They visit each
organization to evaluate their ability to provide a quality program that
meets identified community needs. They decide how to distribute the gifts
based on their evaluations. Volunteers monitor and evaluate results
quarterly.
- Can I give to my church through the MSUCCC campaign?
You can donate to any non-profit organization. Money donated through the
campaign and collected through payroll deduction is paid to the Capital Area
United Way who then in-turn handles disbursement of monies donated to each
organization. There is a small handling fee United Way deducts from
donations to cover their overhead and campaign costs.
- If I designate my gift to go to a particular United Way Participating
Organization, who decides what program my gift supports?
The organization itself determines how to use those funds.
- I would prefer to pay on my pledge once a year in October or November.
Can the Capital Area United Way bill me in October for my pledge?
Yes. Just indicate on your pledge form under "Bill Me", in the "Other"
option that you'd like to be billed in October.
