Leadership Giving

Heart of West Michigan United Way improves lives and builds a stronger community through the generosity of more than 38,000 donors and the work of hundreds of volunteers and community partners. Almost 4,000 donors give at the leadership level, meaning they invest at least $500 or more annually in our community through United Way.

What are the levels of Leadership Giving?

Honor Roll Pillar $500 to $1,199
Bronze Pillar $1,200 to $2,999
Silver Pillar $3,000 to $5,999
Gold Pillar $6,000 to $9,999
Alexis de Tocqueville $10,000 or more

How do I become a Leadership Giver?

If your place of employment runs a campaign with Heart of West Michigan United Way, you will have the opportunity to become a leadership giver during that campaign. By completing your pledge form and contributing $500 or more annually, you can join the thousands of leadership givers improving lives in our community.

If your employer does not run a campaign, we would be happy to assist you in learning more about giving to our community through United Way. Please contact any of the United Way staff members below for more details and to make a donation.

Don’t forget that you can always give online too!
