Your donation can go further this fall!

We are so excited to share that our ‘Double Your Difference’ donation match challenge is back! Double your difference is the ultimate way to extend the reach of your gift to the 2025-26 Community Campaign for United Way!

Made possible by an anonymous donor, this exciting challenge will support our efforts to achieve our 2025-26 Community Campaign goal.

The parameters around this donation match challenge are based on whether you gave to United Way Peterborough & District’s 2024-25 Campaign (donations placed between April 1st, 2024 and March 31st, 2025).

If you did not donate to United Way Peterborough & District in 2024-25:

Donations of any amount made by community members who did not donate to United Way Peterborough & District in 2024-25 will be 100% matched!

If you did donate to United Way Peterborough & District in 2024-25:

Community members who donated to United Way Peterborough & District in 2024-25 can participate in the donation matching challenge as well. All you have to do is increase your 2024-25 donation by 10% or more and the increased amount will be matched. For example, if you gave $1,200 last year and you decide to increase your gift to $1,320, the additional $120 will be matched.
