By the end of 2022, United Way will have awarded Unite Charlotte funding to over 75 grassroots agencies. In addition to grant funding, leaders from over 50 of these agencies have completed Duke University’s Nonprofit Management Certification program at no-cost to them as part of the program’s capacity-building component. This and other trainings help bolster their sustainability and community impact.
Once an agency successfully finishes as a “Unite Charlotte First Year” recipient, it is then invited to apply for a larger grant award for the next 1-2 years. Funding for executive leadership training is then provided to these Unite Charlotte “Second Year” and “Third Year” grantees. This investment in leadership allows the agencies to better execute on its mission and goals, driving stronger outcomes and impact.
