Community Impact
The United Way of Volusia-Flagler Counties is committed to serving the community in the areas of Education, Financial Stability, and Health. To better serve the local community and invest in long-term, measurable change, the United Way has transitioned to the Community Impact model.
Under the Community Impact Model, United Way funds 30 programs at 22 501(c)(3) non-profit agencies in Volusia and Flagler Counties. Community Impact Funding is based upon a two-year grant cycle, which began on July 1, 2017 and ends on June 30, 2019.
For questions about Community Impact, please contact Vice President of Community Impact, Courtney Edgcomb at (386) 275-1944 or CEdgcomb@uwvfc.org.
