UWGWD: Equity Diversity & Inclusion Funding Stream in the US
The United Way Guelph Wellington Dufferin (UWGWD) is now inviting applications for its Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Funding Stream.
Focus: Dedicated investment for marginalized communities, because they know that real, tangible barriers to resources and belonging in the communities persist.
United Way is rooted in building strong and inclusive communities. They strive to create opportunities for everyone to reach their full potential. However, many of the issues United Way works to address have a disproportionate impact on black, Indigenous, racialized, people with disabilities and other marginalized communities.
They acknowledge that due to systemic factors, some members of the community experience barriers to accessing programs/services and funding to support those programs. This stream will work to support organizations doing work to support marginalized groups and improve equity, diversity and inclusion across the community within United Way’s scope of impact.
