Changemaker Grants

About this program

United Way of Greater New Bedford offers Changemaker Grants, providing up to $2,500 to support community-driven projects that foster unity and address local needs. All-volunteer groups with annual budgets under $40,000 are eligible to apply, and the grants aim to empower these groups to create positive change. Applicants must be based in specific towns, have an inclusive mission, and their projects should align with United Way's focus areas, which include healthy communities, youth opportunity, and financial security.
