2024-2025 Community Care Fund
Agency Application
The 2025 CCF process started with an initial step, a letter of interest. The submission window was 7/15 - 8/2. The LOI asked for basic program information and helped the team decide whether the Community Care Fund fits the project well.
After the LOI review, agencies who receive an invitation to submit a full application (in mid-August) will submit that application online by 9/30/2024. In the fall, Impact Councils of local volunteers review and score applications and make funding recommendations to the United Way Board of Directors. Funds for 2025 use will be awarded in Dec. 2024; mid-year reporting will be in June 2025; final reporting will be after Dec. 2025.
Get an early start and consider alignment now. Determine which impact area most closely aligns with the program for which you will seek funding. Program examples can be viewed by clicking the icons of each impact area. Program examples (below) provide help in identifying which impact area will fit best. These are common examples of programs but are not comprehensive. If you are unsure about which impact area to select for your program, contact us for guidance.
