Corporate Engagement

The United Way of Delaware County creates strategic partnerships with area companies and their employees to tailor a partnership that reflects your corporate values, commitment and desire to make an impact in the community where you live. There are various ways in which your company and employees can get involved:

Workplace Giving

The United Way workplace campaign is a familiar Delaware County, Ohio tradition. Every fall, area companies conduct workplace campaigns led by company volunteers. During group meetings, at special events and through personal contact with trained "key workers," employees learn about United Way, its initiatives, agencies, and how donor dollars are used in the community. Contact Gina Grote, Director of Philanthropy, to learn about additional virtual activities due to the pandemic.

If your company would like information about conducting a workplace campaign to advance the common good, contact United Way via phone at (614) 436-UWAY (8929) or our online contact form.

Campaign Toolkit

Our Campaign Toolkit will provide you with everything you need to run a successful employee campaign. Download each of the resources below. Some of these items can be filled out online and emailed to us.

Payroll Deduction

Most people contribute to United Way through payroll deduction — it makes giving easy. Using electronic or paper pledge forms, you tell us how much you'd like to give. Your employer then sets aside a portion of your earning from each pay period.

Corporate Matching Programs

Please talk to your Human Resources Director; your United Way gift may be eligible for a Corporate Matching Program.

Interested in learning more about how you can participate? Contact our Director of Philanthropy, Gina Grote at (614) 436-UWAY (8929) or visit our contact form.

Employee Engagement

Volunteering through the workplace benefits employees, corporations, and the community at large. Employees have the opportunity to put their skills and passion into action, companies demonstrate their corporate citizenship, and people's lives are improved. We all win when a child succeeds in school, when a family becomes financially stable, and when people have good health. Contact Gina Grote for more information on these opportunities.

Corporate Sponsorships

Sponsorship opportunities are available for United Way of Delaware County events and programs. To learn more about our Corporate Sponsor opportunities, contact Gina Grote or call (614) 436-UWAY (8929).

Cause Marketing

Enhance your brand, maximize your business, and build customer affinity, while helping your local community. Together, we can co-create a cause marketing program. Contact Gina Grote, Director of Philanthropy to discuss opportunities.
