Each year, United Way of Central Virginia coordinates
the donation of materials and equipment valued well over $25,000.
These donations come through a national non-profit called Gifts
In Kind International and many area businesses that are updating
older equipment. The materials are distributed to both United Way
member and non-member agencies on both a request basis as well
as first-come, first-served basis in some situations.
We encourage
any business to take advantage of this excellent opportunity to
support our community and receive tax advantages.* We require
that any donated equipment is in good working condition and supplies
be in good condition. We only accept computers that are less than
four (4) years old to ensure compatibility with current software
applications.
To make a donation or
if you have any questions, please contact Kenita Withers at (434)
846-8467.
*Please contact your
business’ tax advisor regarding the specific
tax advantages of your donation. |
