Programs (FY 2023)

What They Do

$3.7M in expenses

The organization has chosen to focus and accelerate community wide solutions in three main community impact areas: health, education, and financial stability. Within each of these impact areas, there are primary goals. Health addresses mental health and addiction. Education addresses kindergarten readiness, student success, and career and college readiness. Financial stability addresses housing and child care. United way of central minnesota also provides the community safety net, ensuring access to food and emergency shelter with each year's first dollars raised. Safety net programs are evaluated and selected by a team of experienced volunteers familiar with the agencies and community needs. Program investments in the three impact areas are reviewed by teams of community volunteers after a letter of intent and full request for proposal are accepted by the organization. The investment team of community volunteers reviews the applications and makes funding recommendations to the board of directors.

$142K in expenses
