Membership Investment

Trident United Way PULSE consists of leaders from across the Tri-County who contribute $1,000 or more to Trident United Way. Members have unique opportunities to see the impact that their financial support and volunteerism have on community issues.

Members also have opportunities to support the PULSE Flex Fund, supporting working families with students in Title I to help them overcome time-sensitive financial barriers that can stand in the way of lasting stability.

PULSE Step-Up Program

For those individuals not quite ready to invest in Trident United Way at the $1,000 level, the PULSE Step-Up program allows donors to gradually increase their gift over a period of three years. Step-Up members will make a commitment to increase their Trident United Way gift, giving at least $500 in year one, $750 in year two and $1,000 in year three. Step-Up members are recognized as full PULSE members and have access to all PULSE benefits.
