Purpose
To support cross-cutting initiatives in the community, including collective impact efforts and community collaborations aligned with United Way of Greater Rochester’s Impact Areas: Health, Education and Economic Mobility.
United Way’s Strategic Partnerships will help their region to work together on complex social issues that cannot be solved by one sector or organization alone.
They consider collective impact to be a unique, community-driven initiative designed to address complex social issues across sectors and organizations. A common agenda, shared measurement, mutually reinforcing activities, continuous communication and a strong backbone team are essential elements for collective impact to be successful. These grant opportunities will support collaborative community partners that embrace equity as a priority, and agree to design and implement strategies that build a culture and foster relationships of trust and respect. Strategic partnership grants are short-term, innovative investments that financially support a defined collective impact initiative, averaging $25,000 annually.
