United Way Opens New Grant Cycle

For more than 100 years, United Way of Salt Lake has partnered with nonprofit agencies in Davis, Salt Lake, Summit, and Tooele counties to make a difference in our community. Each Community Partner receives grants from United Way of Salt Lake. We invest in 63 community partners, 163 programs, and four strategic initiatives that create a brighter future in our community.

Every three years United Way of Salt Lake undergoes its grant cycle, through which our existing community partners must reapply for grants and new non-profit and public service providers are invited to apply. UWSL is now in the midst of the 2008-2011 grant cycle and we encourage all non-profit organizations and established public entities to apply. (Read the full article)

IMPACT MATTERS

Calling for Grant Applications: Deadline Jan. 11, 2008


Over the years, UWSL has been fortunate to partner with many outstanding organizations throughout our service area of Salt Lake, Davis, Tooele, and Summit Counties. It is through the grassroots services of these partners that we are able to extend our reach and achieve the greatest good from the funds we have available.

Each United Way of Salt Lake Community Partner undergoes a significant review to determine its effectiveness and adherence to United Way's Pathways to Prosperity. Partners receive funding from United Way based on the evaluations from that review. Partners will need to demonstrate that they are actively collaborating with agencies/partners in the community as a way to ensure efficiency and non-duplicative services. Each partner must have accountability measures in place to track results from their agency. (Read the full article)
