Application Process & Timeline
United Way of the Greater Triangle offers several funding opportunities throughout the year. Interested organisations should subscribe to their newsletter and follow them on social media to learn when applications open.
Applications are submitted through their Submittable portal. The organisation prioritises people and communities most impacted by poverty and racism, centring organisations led by women and leaders of colour who approach their work with root cause and racial equity analysis.
UWGT asks grantees to present a diversified funder base, though they recognise this may take time for some grantees to achieve. Their RFP process reflects an ongoing commitment to young people and their multi-generational families, with no age limits and consideration of proposals serving people at any point in the life cycle.
