UNITED WAY INITIATIVES

Saving residents money on prescription medication with a free prescription discount card.

 The United Way FamilyWize prescription discount card is free to anyone who would like one. It can be used as often as needed by anyone for any qualifying prescription; it is like a reusable coupon for many different prescriptions.

The card has no income limits or age requirements and requires no registration. To receive the discounted prescription price, the card should be presented at a participating pharmacy. Those with prescription insurance can present their insurance card and the United Way FamilyWize card at the pharmacy to determine which will offer the most savings.
