At Orlando Auto Ally, we believe in the power of community and collective giving. By participating in the United Way workplace campaign, you can unite with fellow employees to uplift those in need across Orlando and beyond. Your donations not only provide tangible support but also foster a culture of giving within our organization.
Through this campaign, employees can contribute via payroll deductions, one-time gifts, or even by donating vehicles directly to qualifying local United Way chapters. Your vehicle donation will help fund essential programs focused on education, financial stability, health, and basic needs. Plus, it can help you receive a 1098-C form to acknowledge your contribution for tax purposes.
How to activate this channel

Check with your HR department to ensure that your employer participates in the United Way workplace giving campaign and to learn about any matching gift opportunities.
Donate Your Vehicle
If donating a vehicle, coordinate with Orlando Auto Ally to arrange for a donation directly to a local United Way chapter or a qualified agency. Ensure the vehicle meets the eligibility criteria.
Receive Tax Documentation
Once your vehicle is donated, you will receive a 1098-C form from the United Way chapter, documenting your contribution for tax purposes.
Track Your Impact
Your donation will be attributed to your workplace campaign, allowing you to see the collective impact of employee contributions and any employer matches.
×Impact multiplier
Your contributions through Orlando Auto Ally's United Way workplace campaign can multiply your impact significantly. For example, if you donate a vehicle valued at $5,000, that contribution can become $10,000 or more when combined with employer matching gifts. This amplification enables United Way's local programs to address pressing community needs effectively, from education to health services. By working together, we can create an enduring legacy of support and change for our neighbors in Orlando.
