Yes. United Way funds can provide only a portion of the money needed by program providers to render their services. Sliding scale fees are charged in some cases to offer services to more people.

Yes. Almost all United Way agencies provide service on a sliding fee scale so that those who are able to pay for the services do so while those who are less able to pay are not denied services because of their financial situation. Philosophically, we believe that people value the service more if they have contributed to its support, even if it’s only a token amount.
