Overview

United Way of New York City (UWNYC) remains committed to our goal of
strengthening New York City nonprofits through board development
initiatives and grantmaking activity. We recognized, through our
strategic planning process, that organizational strategies and
practices, such as the range of supports that nonprofits can access and
utilize to build their organizational capacity, are not as widely
available or implemented as they might be. Therefore in the 2009-2010
fiscal year (ending June 30, 2010),UWNYC will provide a limited number
of grants ranging from $5,000 to $20,000 to local community-based health
and human services organizations that have annual budgets under $5
million. These one-time grants will be made on a competitive basis
according to the criteria stated below.

Minimum Qualification Criteria

In order to be considered for a Community Grant, applicants must meet
the following minimum criteria:

* Be a voluntary, not-for-profit health and human service agency
with a minimum of 3 years of experience providing programs and services
* Be incorporated as not-for-profit corporation, satisfying all
requirements of New York State law
* Be designated by the IRS as a 501(c)(3), tax-exempt organization
or have a verifiable 501(c)(3) fiscal agent
* Be located in New York City and serve low-income clients who
live and/or work in one or more of the five boroughs
* Have an active Board of Directors
* Have a professional Executive Director who is accountable to the
Board of Directors
* Have an annual budget under $5 million
* Have a certified independent financial audit and IRS 990 tax
form, or similar form, if the 990 is not required
* Comply with all provisions of the Americans with Disabilities
Act
* Have an affirmative action statement and operate by policy and
practice without discrimination based on age, race, gender, religion,
sexual preference, disability, economic status, cultural heritage or
national origin. This shall be true in all respects of the
organization's operations, including services to people, selection of
board, employment of staff and volunteers, and purchases of supplies

Selection Criteria

Applications that meet the minimum qualification criteria will be
reviewed and scored based the following selection criteria:

1. The critical nature of the issue(s) facing the population(s)
served by the organization, and the immediate vulnerability of that
population during the current economic crisis.

2. The organization's ability to articulate a pressing
organizational need for fiscal management, fundraising or strategic
planning support, including a thoughtful and realistic plan, budget and
timeline to address the need.

3. The impact upon the population(s) served that will result from
meeting the vital organizational need.

4. Preference will be given to organizations serving high-need
communities as indicated by (but not limited to): high rates of
unemployment, violence, foster-care placement, prisoner re-entry,
incidence of disease, and high school drop-out.
