COMMUNITY IMPACT GRANT PROGRAM
At United Way of the Mid-Willamette Valley we work to unite people and resources to build resilient communities that thrive. Dedicated to facilitating lasting social change, we work together with businesses, government, schools, faith groups, community members, and other nonprofits, because it takes the whole community to achieve the kind of results we need.
Our intent is to be nimble and adaptive in our response to community needs, providing financial and in-kind resources to partners and serving as a facilitator, convener, and catalyst for innovative and strategic projects. Our priorities include: developing housing for all; strengthening children and families; convening community leaders; and, meeting basic needs.
In 2018, United Way invested $1.3M back into our region. One key way we invest dollars back into the community is through our Community Impact Grant Program. Our redesigned grant-making program is impact-driven, equitable, transparent, and regionally focused.
United Way will now has one grant cycle annually, with proposals due July 15 and funds distributed by October 15. The grant application will be available on our website www.UnitedWayMWV.org from June 1 – July 15, 2020.
Grant focus areas align with the most pressing community needs and United Way priorities. Please check back in early 2020 to see what grant focus areas will be for 2020. We also distribute funding annually via an investment in the Willamette MBA course, Philanthropic Investment for Community Impact and their grant-making program.
