United Way of Greater New Bedford will be hosting two information sessions on March 4, for all-volunteer groups interested in applying for a Community Building Mini-Grant.
United Way’s Mini-Grants program empowers all-volunteer groups with budgets of $40,000 or less to apply for funding to implement small-scale, impactful projects in the Greater New Bedford area. Potential projects must reflect the goals of United Way in the areas of health, education, financial stability, or basic needs. Groups can apply for up to $2,500 to implement a project that builds community and addresses a need or issue of concern.

Information sessions will be held on Wednesday, March 4th from 10 – 11 am or 5:30 – 6:30 pm at the New Bedford Free Public Library located at 613 Pleasant St. 3rd Floor, New Bedford.
