At Velocity Vehicle, we believe in the power of giving back. By participating in the United Way Workplace Giving Campaign, you can make a meaningful impact in our community while enjoying the benefits of employee giving. This campaign allows you to contribute through payroll deductions or one-time gifts, helping support vital programs that address education, health, and financial stability.
Additionally, through this initiative, you have the unique opportunity to donate your vehicle directly to a qualifying local United Way chapter or to an agency it supports. With every vehicle donation, you receive a 1098-C form for your tax records, and your contribution can be attributed to your workplace campaign, making you eligible for employer matching gifts if available.
