COMMUNITY-CENTERED CRISIS RESPONSE

RESPONSE

SNAP Rapid Relief Grants

Since October 30, UWMB and 13 United Ways across Massachusetts have awarded grants to more than 200 community-based organizations that submitted applications. With the reopening of the federal government and the restoration of funding for SNAP benefits, we are pausing accepting new applications. We are evaluating the continued need in light of SNAP eligibility changes and reauthorization requirements, as well as new pressures on households from increased costs and funding reductions for heat, housing and healthcare.

Grant Update : November 21

Please continue to watch this space for updates. If you are a community-based organization serving one of UWMB’s 12 focus communities, please check the United Response Fund for additional funding opportunities from United Way of Massachusetts Bay. All other funding inquiries should be directed to your local United Way. If you are an individual looking for immediate assistance, please contact Mass 211 or Project Bread at 1-800-645-8333.
