The staff at United Way of Washtenaw County are passionate about their community and show a true devotion to making progress there. They are approachable and helpful with questions you have regarding the application process and wonderful at maintaining communication after the grant has been submitted. It's a true partnership.

Keep up the good work!
Approachable and creative.
We appreciate being able forward non-United Way grants to describe our programs, philosophy etc. It saved us so much time and provided a much richer picture of what we do.

Fill it out. The Opportunity Grant is non-intimidating and easy to complete. If unsure of the best fit, reach out to a staff member before applying. They are very accessible.

United Way is really "thinking outside the box" in terms of funding agencies and projects that address the root causes of poverty and inequality, not just traditional social service organizations. I really appreciate this high-level thinking.
I really appreciate how accessible staff are and the attention paid to making small grants simple for grantees. The change to allowing us to have a short meeting with a staff member rather than writing a lengthy report at the end is *huge!* It saves everyone time and helps us have a two way conversation about how our project fits into their long term goals.

The staff at United Way of Washtenaw County are very friendly and approachable. I would highly recommend reaching out to the staff to inquire about projects. They are happy to help provide more insights on what types of projects/proposals would be likely to be more successful.
