Leadership Giving

Leadership Givers make a substantial impact creating lasting change while also helping people get back on their feet today.

Contribution levels to United Way of South Central Indiana qualify donors for membership in our giving societies.

About Leadership Recognition

Unless Leadership donors choose to remain anonymous, they are recognized in a publicly distributed Annual Report to the Community. Occasionally, United Way volunteers host special events to acknowledge the important role Leadership Givers play in the general United Way campaign and our community.
