Leadership
Your generosity has the power, through setting an example, to inspire others to do more than they thought they could in helping their community. Support from the Corporate Cornerstone Companies covers 100% of United Way’s low 12.7% administrative costs. Therefore, your gifts may be designated for the Community Fund, any 501(c)(3) or both. Leadership donors have led the way in making our community a philanthropic leader in the nation, creating a source of pride and a powerful recommendation to companies and individuals considering Central New Mexico as a relocation destination while changing lives for the better.
