Intent to Apply: INNOVATION Grant
Welcome to Step 1 | United Way Community Investment Innovation Grant
This one-year funding cycle has an opportunity for a potential one-year extension. The opportunity to apply is open to any agency in the community, with priority given to partners/programs that have not previously received United Way funding. The grant funding is intended for new and innovative programming that focuses on one or more of the following three key areas of community investment: 1) education 2) financial stability (basic needs) and 3) access to health. Funding will be granted to initiatives that are creating a new program or addressing a need in a new way. Funds for this cycle will begin to be distributed at the end of September, and will be paid out on a quarterly basis. We encourage 501(c)(3) organizations to apply under the categories of Early Childhood Education & Literacy, Youth Development & Mentoring, Financial Stability and/or Access to Health.
Deadline to submit: April 15, 2024
