Community Care Fund

CY 2025 & CY2026

The UWNI Community Care Fund CY2025 is mid-cycle and underway; agencies are implementing their projects. (Mid-cycle reporting for activities Jan-June 2025 is due in July 2025.) 

In 2025, we are taking the time to re-envision and refresh our community care funding process. While UWNI and the impact councils engage in planning, which includes setting funding levels, making decisions about impact areas to focus on, and what software is used for internal and external grant management processes, a Letter of Interest for UWNI CCF CY2026 is not offered in June 2025.

We will post updates here and in our newsletters once the CY2026 process and its dates, deadlines, and forms are updated. Newsletter opt-in
