Volunteers working in kitchen

Everyone should be able to make healthy choices for themselves and their families. But there can be a lot of barriers in underserved communities. United Way’s partnerships with local groups expand access to nutritious food, quality health care, and emergency shelter. 

Grants for mental & physical health

Grants for physical and mental health programs ensure communities have access to essential care, supporting overall well-being, reducing long-term costs, and promoting healthier, more resilient populations.


 

Emergency Shelter Grants

Grants for emergency shelter help ensure individuals and families have a safe place to stay during times of crisis, offering stability, dignity, and a foundation for long-term recovery.


 

Grants for Hunger Relief Programs

Hunger relief programs like food pantries and meal services help ensure that individuals and families facing food insecurity have reliable access to nutritious meals—because healthy food is essential to physical and mental well-being.
