Equity is when all are
Help support us by making a donation.
You are one of the supporters providing opportunity, guidance and strength as we find solutions to our region’s toughest challenges. When none are ignored, all will thrive.
By giving to United Way NCA, you are joining a group of philanthropists who have pledged themselves to the equity movement. Your donation will go directly to the area programs and initiatives that need it most as we reduce disparities and increase equity in the region. Donate today and help United Way NCA provide young people with academic and social support; train adults for jobs that pay a family sustaining income; and connect people in need to medical care, housing and other basic support. It’s a win-win for you and the community you care about. Interested in becoming a monthly donor? Click here.

Yes. The IRA charitable rollover is a great way for you to make a gift to support United Way of the National Capital Area. The IRA rollover allows donors 70.5 years or older to transfer up to $100,000 directly from their IRA to United Way NCA on an annual basis. An IRA rollover gift is a tax-exempt distribution. Qualifying individuals can make charitable gifts using pre-tax IRA assets rather than taking a distribution, paying income taxes and using after tax assets to make a charitable gift. An IRA rollover gift can be used to meet all or part of an IRA’s annual required minimum distribution. Learn more at unitedwaynca.org/take-action/donate/planned-giving.
