2012 Funding Applications Available

Char-Em United Way’s 2012 Community Investment Allocation process has begun.  Non-profit agencies which provide programs and services meeting the health and human service needs of Charlevoix and Emmet Counties are encouraged to submit a Letter of Intent to apply for funding.

Letter of Intent applications can be requested by contacting us at 487-1006 or by emailing info@charemunitedway.org. These must be submitted electronically and are due by 5 p.m., January 13.  The submissions will be reviewed by the United Way Allocation Committee, and agencies which meet United Way’s funding criteria and priorities will be invited to submit a complete application.
2012 Funding Priorities focus on meeting the community’s needs for Education, Income and Health.  View our Eligibility Criteria.
Agencies invited to submit a full application will be scheduled to make a presentation to CEUW’s Citizen Review Panel in April. The Citizen Review Panel reviews the requests for funding, hears presentations, seeks additional information, and makes recommendations to the United Way Board of Directors. The Board of Directors will meet in May to consider the recommendations of the Panel and to make Community Investment Allocation decisions.
