NWA Daily

The United Way of Northwest Arkansas recently announced the recipients of its 2022 Community Investment Grant of nearly $2m. 

  • Financial support: The organizations that received funds are in Washington, Benton, and Madison counties and are all part of supporting what is called “asset limited, income constrained, and employed” families, or ALICE families. The grant funds ranged from $10k-$157k per organization. 
  • For prosperity: Panels consisting of regional human services professionals, public affairs academics, social work leaders, and business leaders made the final grant recipient selections. The money will go toward efforts such as early learning, quality out-of-school time, and self-sufficiency development.
