Planned Giving / Endowment
United Way of Greater Portland's Foundation / Endowment has become more important to
United Way's work. As it has expanded over the years, it has become a vital source of funding
for some of our initiatives like 2-1-1 Maine, LANA and Let's Go!, which are funded primarily through resources generated outside of the annual campaign.
Your endowed gift is managed by United Way professionals to produce a steady and secure source of funds. By leaving the principal of your gift intact year after year, United Way ensures a continuous funding source.
For those wishing to make a legacy gift in the area of health and human services, the United Way of Greater Portland Foundation / Endowment is the perfect opportunity to ensure that the pressing needs of our community will be addressed now and in the future.
As the endowment grows, it generates increased income that is infused into our community. Ultimately, this support lessens our reliance on our generous corporate partners and government grants.
