LEADERSHIP GIVING SOCIETIES

United Way’s leadership donors are the most generous, community-minded and influential individuals throughout the Greater Rochester region. Members of the leadership giving societies invest millions of dollars each year to help United Way solve some of our most critical challenges. They also enjoy benefits of membership with annual events, networking and volunteer opportunities.

This year, all new or increased Community Fund donations from United Way leadership donors will be matched, dollar for dollar up to $100,000, thanks to the generosity of John & Linda Van Heel.
