Greenwich non-profit organizations can submit grant requests December 15 to January 15

GREENWICH, Conn., December 2, 2025 – The Greenwich United Way will seek applications from non-profit organizations for its community impact grants starting December 15^th. The deadline for organizations to apply is January 15^th at Noon EST. Every year Greenwich United Way awards nearly $1 million to local health, education and self-sufficiency programs across various partner agencies that assist Greenwich residents.

Greenwich United Way Community Investment grants are awarded following an extensive review process. Dozens ofvolunteers on the Community Investment Process committee review grant applications from human services agencies that serve Greenwich residents. The process involves visits to the program sites of grant candidates and intensive evaluation of the financials, applications, and other data. The trained volunteers then make funding recommendations to the Greenwich United Way Board of Directors. The Community Investment Process is guided by the research of local needs as published in Greenwich United Way Needs Assessment Report and Executive Summary.

“Our team of volunteers does extensive research to prioritize the many unmet needs in town and then fund programs that best address those needs. This process is one of the many reasons to include the Greenwich United Way in year-end giving; we do the work, so you don’t have to, ensuring the greatest impact of donor dollars,” said David Rabin, CEO of Greenwich United Way. “With the generosity of the people of Greenwich donating time, talent and capital, we help the nearly one-third of our community who need support.”

Interested applicants who would like to learn about criteria and qualifications should contact Vice President of Community Impact Robert Moore at rmoore@greenwichunitedway.org to apply.
