Community investments through grants: UWTC's community investment process empowers people who live or work in tompkins county to help with grant decisions where they have the most impact. Through the community care fund, the TMS flexible fund, and three student engagement grant cycles, volunteers work in teams to determine funding recommendations to the UWTC board of directors. The review teams meet to review applications based on community needs and funding priorities identified by UWTC. They also vet the programs based on program outcomes and impact information, budget and program reviews, as well as organizational and operational performance.
