Improving Lives Since 1957
United Way is committed to creating lasting change with measurable improvements for people in North Idaho.
Since 1957, UWNI has been fundraising and supporting local nonprofit organizations, proving to be the most powerful investment you can make in our community. We bring together human services agencies, government, businesses, and dedicated volunteers round a common vision of creating maximum impact and achieving long-lasting results.
Our focus areas are Education, Financial Stability, and Health.

Click here to see a list of our most recently funded partner agencies, learn about the volunteer teams that make up our Community Impact Councils, and what goes into the funding decisions.
In 2025, we are taking the time to re-envision and refresh our community care funding process. While UWNI and the impact councils engage in planning, which includes setting funding levels, making decisions about impact areas to focus on, and what software is used for internal and external grant management processes, a Letter of Interest for UWNI CCF CY2026 is not offered in June 2025.
We will post updates here and in our newsletters once the CY2026 process and its dates, deadlines, and forms are updated. Newsletter opt-in
