Holiday Giving Tree


Share love and joy with our neighbors in need this season with the Holiday Giving Tree. Your donation of $30 fills a gift wish for a local child, adult, or senior who may otherwise go without.

But wait...your Holiday Giving Tree donation does even more good!
Whenever possible, United Way will purchase gifts from Black-owned and women-owned local businesses. 
 

Give a Gift

Follow @UnitedWayGMWC on Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin, and
