United Way Grants

Current Grant Opportunities

United Way grants fund a variety of programs and services in our community. Grant opportunities for this year are:

Rapid Response Grants are designed to provide immediate funding for health and human service nonprofit organizations experiencing unanticipated changes in financial circumstances jeopardizing a critical program’s ability to be effective and causing negative consequences to clients and the community. Alternatively, funding may address a significantly increased demand for services that exceeds the organization’s capacity to meet with current financial resources.

Summer Learning Grants are open to schools and organizations serving Berks County students. The grant provides up to $5,000 in support of summer learning programming.
