Give Back – The Power of Neighbors Helping Neighbors
When you give to Crossroads United Way, you do more than make a donation — you invest in real, lasting change for families across Elkhart, LaGrange, Noble, and Steuben counties.
Your generosity fuels programs that help children succeed in school, families achieve financial stability, and individuals live healthier, more connected lives. Every gift, no matter the size, strengthens the fabric of our community — one neighbor at a time.
Ways to Give Back
Leadership Giving
Join a community of passionate leaders committed to creating meaningful impact.
Leadership donors play a vital role in advancing Crossroads United Way’s mission, providing the resources and vision needed to drive large-scale, positive change. Together, we create a stronger, more resilient region where everyone can thrive.
Donor Advised Funds
Make a difference your way.
A Donor Advised Fund (DAF) gives you the flexibility to support the causes you care about most — with the added benefit of streamlined giving, potential tax advantages, and the confidence that your investment creates measurable impact through United Way.
