United Way of Marathon County has established a Bold Goal to lift 10,000 community members to financial stability by 2033. As such, our funding priorities will focus on accomplishing that goal. As always, grants will be awarded through a competitive application process. Applications will be evaluated by a dedicated group of United Way volunteers otherwise known as our Investment Team. Final grant decisions will be made by the United Way Board of Directors.

If you have any questions, please reach out to MaiGer Moua, Director of Community Impact at mmoua@unitedwaymc.org
