Donation FAQs

Where can I get a Donation Form?

All form are located in the Download Center.

Who should checks be made out to?

Please make all checks out to: United Way of Greater Los Angeles

Can I bring my donations to the walk rather than mail them in ahead of time?

While you can always bring your donations to the walk, it is preferable that you mail them in as soon as you can to:

United Way of Greater Los Angeles
523 West Sixth Street
Los Angeles, CA 90014

What if people want to give me cash?

Sending cash through the mail is always risky. If you are able, the safest option is to send a personal check covering the full amount, along with the corresponding donation forms, to United Way of Greater Los Angeles and we will be able to credit your friends and family for their generosity. If this is not possible, you can also bring the cash donations and appropriate donation forms to the walk.

What if my donors don't want to donate online?

You can always have your donors mail their donations directly to our office:

United Way of Greater Los Angeles
523 West Sixth Street
Los Angeles, CA 90014

Please have them submit the corresponding donation forms with their checks so you will be credited for your fundraising efforts. If this is not possible, please have them indicate which walk they are supporting and include your name on the memo section of the check.

Do I have to fill out one donation form for each check?

Yes. This is the best way to ensure that you receive the credit you deserve for all your fundraising efforts.

Can I continue to collect donations after the walk? Where do I send the checks?

Absolutely, please mail them with the appropriate donation forms to our office:

United Way of Greater Los Angeles
523 West Sixth Street
Los Angeles, CA 90014
