How does a contributor know the agency they designated to is receiving their money?
United Way of Miami-Dade sends a letter to each contributor acknowledging the gift amount and any designated agencies. The letter instructs the contributor to advise United Way of Miami-Dade if there is any correction to be made on the information provided in the letter. We also provide detailed reports via email to agencies receiving funds from the Contributor Choice Program. If a contributor chose to have his name released to the agency, the report includes the contributor’s information. United Way of Miami-Dade urges agencies to send acknowledgment to the United Way contributors detailed in the report. Most agencies send an acknowledgment letter to the contributor indicating they have received a contribution, however, there are agencies that do not.
