“We feel secure knowing United Way programming is smart, responsible, and best serves the needs of our community.”

The Tocqueville Society of United Way is an alliance of over 300 successful business and philanthropic leaders who share a strong commitment and passion for investing in our local community. Seasoned Tocqueville donors, Virginia and Tim Oskin, recently spoke about their personal reasons for giving back through United Way.

An active volunteer and Women United cabinet member, Virginia has seen the important work done by our United Way. When they looked closely at their annual giving, she and her husband Tim, a physician at St. Luke’s, discovered they were already generously supporting community needs but in a haphazard way, donating at events or to causes they supported through volunteering.

As Virginia notes, “United Way offers us a simpler way to give, ensuring our donation makes the most impact. We feel secure knowing United Way programming is smart, responsible, and best serves the needs of our community.”

The Oskins reside in Hellertown and have 2 children, Sydney (21) and Maclaine (19).
