BRATTLEBORO — United Way of Windham County (UWWC) invites local nonprofit organizations with programs related to health, opportunity, economic prosperity, and education to apply for a Community Impact Grant.
Community Impact Grant applications should align the United Way's priorities and the 14 established outcomes related to these areas, which can be found at www.unitedwaywindham.org.
Applicants providing basic needs may apply for up to $2,500, while programs aligning to the additional outcomes may apply for up to $10,000.
To help Windham County nonprofits learn about its target community outcomes, online grant application, and the application review process, UWWC will hold two Grant-Seeker Forums: on Feb. 11, from noon to 1:30 p.m., at the United Way office at 1 Holstein Place in Brattleboro, and Feb. 19, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., at Parks Place, 44 School St., Bellows Falls.
Although attendance at these “lunch and learn” sessions is not mandatory, interested organizations are strongly encouraged to attend.
The next Community Impact grant deadline is March 13. For eligibility information and a grant timeline, visit UWWC's website.
The community impact process of identifying community needs, investing resources and evaluating United Way's impact is ongoing and will continue to involve individuals and organizations serving Windham County.
