Ways to Support

More Than $100 Million Raised by Bayer | 1922– 2024

You can show your support to the United Way of Greater St. Louis in a variety of ways:

  • Pledging is the most common way to support the United Way. Once the campaign kicks off, you can donate through our Pledge portal with a payroll deduction or a one time donation. If you are not a Bayer employee, you can use the Special Contribution link, once active, to contribute a donation.
  • Getting Involved in campaign activities is a great way to have fun while giving to the United Way. From sports tournaments to the annual fashion show and online auction, there is something for everyone within the range of events to attend. All donations at each event will be matched by Bayer and go directly to the United Way.
  • Volunteering is also a great way to help the United Way with a hands-on approach. Find out how to connect with a local agency or participate in a volunteer opportunity via the Volunteer page.
