The Tocqueville Step-Up Program is a new path to become a member of United Way’s Tocqueville Society. The Step-Up program provides an extended, six-year track so you can participate in United Way’s premier giving society while gradually growing your impact in our community.
Created for those committed to supporting meaningful and lasting community impact, the Tocqueville Step-Up Program helps supporters scale their giving into transformational philanthropy.
Upon making your first gift of $2,500, you will be considered a Tocqueville Society member and join over 200 of the most influential community leaders in the region. The Step-Up Program allows you to grow your giving over a six-year period, all while being recognized as a Tocqueville member and part of a community of our most generous donors.
You can also Fast Track your gift to help you evolve your philanthropic goals as you continue to increase your giving level. When you take advantage of Fast Track, you will be fully recognized as a member of United Way's Tocqueville Society, invited to select events and listed as a leadership donor. Fast Track members give $5,000 in first year of membership, $7,500 in year two, and $10,000 in your third and final Fast Track year.
The Tocqueville Society, named after philanthropist Alexis de Tocqueville pictured here, began 32 years ago with 22 inaugural members. Today, it has grown to nearly 250 members who make an annual commitment to help the region thrive. Your Tocqueville Society membership connects you with hundreds of the most influential community leaders in the region.
