United Way of Greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County
Pathway to Partnership grants are available annually for programs that address current priorities in health, education, and financial stability. Individual agency requests from this fund may not exceed $50,000 per year.
After successfully completing and reporting on at least two years of Pathway to Partnership Grants (one-year each) and receiving recommendations from United Way staff and volunteers, agencies/programs may be considered for United Way partnership status. The process to achieve partnership status takes approximately three years to complete. Approved agencies join the 110+ partnership agencies that receive ongoing, programmatic funding, and are subject to organizational and programmatic requirements.
Note: No new Pathway to Partnership funding was awarded in 2016-2017. Unfortunately, no new Pathway to Partnership grants will be available for the 2017-2018 year.
