United Way of South Wood & Adams Counties recently announced it will distribute $449,000 in south Wood County and $39,000 in Adams County, for a total of $488,000, pending a successful fall campaign. Please note that dollars raised in each county are allocated in the county they are raised, unless otherwise designated by the donor.
Earlier this year, United Way accepted funding applications for programs that address “Education” and “Health”. These programs will receive a grant for 2024. “Financial Stability” and “Safety Net Service” programs are currently funded through 2024 and will be able to apply in 2024 for 2025 funding.
“We’ve made these promises to our partner programs, now we look to the community to help us deliver,” said Tari Jahns, CEO. “The dollars we allocate to these programs come from our annual community campaign. That is why it’s important we have a successful campaign, to help fill these needs.”
