United Way of the Franklin & Hampshire Region (UWFH) is proud to support local programs fostering Economic Security in our communities by announcing two three-year funding opportunities, running 2025-2028. These partnerships are available to distinct programs of nonprofit agencies providing substantive services within our coverage area and following eligibility guidelines.
Applications will be due online on Friday, February 28, 2025.
1. ALIGNED IMPACT PARTNERSHIPS FOCUSED ON FOOD SECURITY
UWFH understands food security as the state of having reliable financial and physical access to a sufficient quantity of affordable, nutritious food. We understand food security both from preventative health and economic security perspectives. Food security has been identified as a prioritized need facing our region in multiple local needs assessments and in our United Way’s community outreach. UWFH seeks to drive aligned impact and collaboration to help solve this challenge by announcing the availability of three-year partnerships to distinct programs of nonprofit organizations and/or coalitions who are interested in working to address this need in a collaborative way.
Total available funding is over $160,000 a year for three years, anticipating that partnerships will be in the $40,000-$50,000 range, per year for three years.
2. GENERAL PARTNERSHIPS FOCUSED ON ECONOMIC SECURITY MORE BROADLY
Economic Security partnerships will target programs that ensure individuals and communities have the ability and resources to meet their basic needs sustainably and with dignity.
Funding available via these partnerships is up to $15,000 a year for three years.
