[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 749953, member: 927"] You can give or not give to United Way. That's your choice. I don't really care Not giving because UPS thinks its good to give, seems like a silly reason to avoid a great charitable organization. I ended up doing the opposite of you. I give a lot of money to charity and I used to give to a lot of different organizations. I guess I remember where I came from and want to give back. I ended up doing the opposite of you however. I found this website: [URL]http://www.charitynavigator.org/[/URL] I looked up every charity that I was giving to, and looked for the % of money going to programs. Those that were low, I stopped contributing to and gave more to United Way. My local United Way gives 90% of its money to programs. Now every time I get a call asking for money, I ask what % goes to programs. They hate hearing that question. My point is that I give to United Way because I think they are a good organization and giving to them fits my lifestyle and I feel good about it. The fact that UPS supports them is only a bonus. It seems like you will choose to do the opposite of what UPS thinks is good... P-Man [/QUOTE]
