Citizens Needed for Grant Review

United Way of Northwest is seeking residents of Antrim, Benzie, Grand Traverse, Kalkaska and Leelanau counties to serve on its Citizen Action Team (CAT). The CAT is the group of citizens who review the various applications for funding, interview the agencies and weigh overall community need as a part of determining how funds will be invested. CAT volunteers receive training before reviewing the requests from local human service nonprofit agencies.

A complete schedule of training sessions and interview dates is available on our website unitedwaynwmi.org. If you have questions or need additional information contact Michelle Gallagher 231-947-3200 x 201, michelleg@unitedwaynwmi.org.

The United Way of Northwest Michigan seeks to efficiently raise and effectively distribute both financial and volunteer resources. The CAT is one of the most effective ways for citizens to help us achieve this mission and serve our community.
