Help support and sustain Penn's Village programs and services through unrestricted donations, and contribute to the well-being of the entire community.

General Fund

Support a neighbor who would have difficulty paying Villager membership dues through the Margaret Armstrong Robb Fund.

Robb Subsidy Fund

Other ways to give:

Direct your United Way gifts to Penn's Village through the donor choice program by selecting Penn’s Village, ID number 52959.

If you are age 70½ or older, you may support Penn’s Village through a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) from your IRA. A QCD must be transferred directly from your IRA custodian to Penn’s Village. The distribution may be excluded from your taxable income and may count toward all or part of your required minimum distribution. Please consult your financial or tax adviser to determine whether a QCD is appropriate for you.

Support Penn’s Village by recommending a grant from your donor-advised fund (DAF). A DAF allows you to contribute charitable assets, potentially receive a tax deduction at the time of that contribution, and recommend grants to eligible nonprofit organizations over time. Donors with accounts at Fidelity Charitable, DAFgiving360 (formerly Schwab Charitable), or BNY Mellon may use DAF Direct to recommend a grant to Penn’s Village.
