"Check Off" for United Way



This year the United Way of Genesee County is encouraging Michigan residents to "check off" for the United Way Fund on Michigan tax returns. Form 4642 will allow people to donate all or part of their 2010 Michigan tax return to the United Way Fund, a fund created to help Michigan's families in need. The fund helps provide food, clothing and shelter for Michigan's low to moderate income families.

Given today's economic conditions and high unemployment in Michigan, more families are at risk than ever before and the need for assistance has never been greater. The Michigan Association of United Ways worked with the Michigan Legislature to create a quick and easy way to donate resources that help ease the burden for many Michigan families. This year, please be sure to "check off" for the United Way Fund. All proceeds will benefit the United Way in your community. Giving has never been so easy!
