Majors

Did you know you can designate your United Way contribution to any 501(c)(3) not-for-profit of your choice? Part of the University of Miami’s mission is to partner with our community. As such, we are granted 501(c)(3) status because of our vital contributions to the greater good of the community.

 

Because of this, you may designate your United Way gift back to many initiatives throughout the University of Miami. The following are the areas at the University to which you may earmark your gift; they are in the drop-down menu in the "Contribution Designation" section of the University's United Way contribution page in MyUM.

 

If you are interested in giving back to the University of Miami to an area which you do not see on this list, please contact your Ambassador or your Lead Ambassador, and they will help to direct your gift in accordance with your wishes.
