What we Do
Response Fund.
The Heart of Maine United Way Response Fund is designed to swiftly address the unexpected needs of existing nonprofits within our community. This fund is tailored to sustain and execute programming efforts in the face of unforeseen challenges, including unplanned purchases, facility or equipment damage, and other critical scenarios not part of normal operations. We aim to support nonprofits in line with HoMEUW’s mission “to mobilize communities to action aso all can thrive” and the following bold goals.
All children have quality early learning experiences.
Prevent, treat and support recovery from Substance Use Disorder
Meet basic needs and promote self-sufficiency for all.
Please note that availability of funds is limited and the Strategic Investment Grants process remains the primary vehicle for program funding.
To apply for funding, use our online Response Fund Application.
