In anticipation of United Way of Greater New Haven's administration of federal funds under the Emergency Food and Shelter National Board Program (EFSP) for fiscal year 2011, a competitive application process for New Haven County nonprofits, faith-based, and government agencies is accepting proposals for emergency services program funding.Other organizations such as smaller emerging nonprofits are encouraged to apply in partnership with an eligible 501(c)3 organization that agrees to serve as the fiscal agent for the grant.

Volunteers Drive Impact

The United Way Community Impact Cabinet met on May 17, 2010 at our new offices at 900 Chapel Street to move through a full agenda of community change efforts.  The volunteers reviewed the recently made Neighbor-to-Neighbor LifeLine investments, and discussed the information learned from the initiative to better understand the challenges and strengths facing our region.  The bottom line: what did we learn from this fundraising, investment, and volunteer effort that will make our work and this community stronger?
