The Campaign's Impact

The Dartmouth community and Granite United Way have partnered to improve lives in the Upper Valley since 1971.

Granite United Way works with nonprofit organizations that are critical to the health of our community, investing in programs that truly impact individuals' lives in measurable and definable ways. 

In the fall of 2024, Granite United Way launched a new grant-making process designed to provide responsive grants to agencies most in need. These grants, awarded three times a year, ensure that organizations can apply for funding at the moments they need it most so they can continue their critical work, transforming lives and strengthening our community.

Each year these supported organizations provide services that help thousands of our neighbors, ranging from safe shelter, food pantries, hospice visits, and job training to fuel assistance, prevention programs, counseling, and warm clothing.

Over 25 local non-profit organizations and agencies received funding from Granite United Way in 2024.

 

The United Way fights for the health, education, and financial stability of every person in every community, because everyone deserves to be healthy.
