United Way of Kenosha County announces opening of annual Community Investment Fund program

United Way of Kenosha County, mobilizing the caring power of our community, will open their annual Community Investment Fund grant application on March 1.

Each year, UWKC awards grants to vetted local nonprofit organizations whose work is focused in the areas of education, financial stability, and health. The grant application process closes on April 1. Awards will be announced in June.

United Way of Kenosha County invests local dollars donated during its annual campaign into the Community Investment Fund. A committee of community volunteers conduct a competitive grantmaking process and selects grant recipients that are able to demonstrate measurable results in UWKC’s key focus areas of education, financial stability, and health.

“The Community Investment Fund aims to leverage financial resources in support of collaborative and proven solutions that address Kenosha’s most urgent challenges,” UWKC director of community impact operations Jevon Claussen said. “UWKC, our nonprofit partners, and local donors are able to make a positive impact on the lives of those in need and improve community outcomes.”
