Benefits of Partnering

Both your organization and employees benefit when you engage with United Way.

Connection to your community: In addition to donating to causes they care about, a United Way workplace campaign offers employees a chance to learn more about local services available to those in need and to get directly involved by volunteering throughout the year.
Corporate recognition: Partnership with United Way elevates your brand and enhances your employee recruitment efforts. United Way recognizes our community partners through electronic billboards, an annual insert in the Milwaukee Business Journal, social media, event marketing, and more.
Employee satisfaction and retention: Employees who can give back to causes they care about through their workplace are more likely to find satisfaction in their employment. Workplace campaigns bring together employees from all levels and departments to foster a stronger, more cohesive, and more motivated workforce.
Professional development: Our donor networks provide your employees opportunities to learn about community issues, network with like-minded individuals, and volunteer to make a difference.
