David Meyerhofer first gave to United Way as a graduate student in Princeton, New Jersey.  He wasn’t thinking about legacy or lineage. He wasn’t honoring a family name. He and his wife simply looked at the organization and liked what it stood for.

That was the beginning of a giving habit that has lasted over four decades. What David didn’t know—what no one in Read More

I was thinking of that as we move from Read More
