Second Round of COVID-19 Relief Available

United Community Relief Fund – Request for Proposals

GiveWell Community Foundation and United Way of Central Florida are pleased to offer a second round of Request for Proposals for the United Community Relief Fund (UCRF).

This Fund was created to aid community organizations working on the frontlines, engaging and supporting individuals impacted by COVID-19 and facing an unprecedented demand on resources.

This RFP is open only to nonprofit organizations in Polk, Highlands and Hardee counties addressing the priorities as listed below:

Priorities

Initial priority for this RFP will be to help fund human services organizations working with vulnerable populations. This may include the following:

  • Child Care/ Adult Care Assistance
  • Education
  • Food Distribution
  • Shelter
  • Emergency Needs (as related to COVID-19)

Applications should address gaps in services and increase capacity of organizations to meet basic needs of vulnerable clients relating to the COVID-19 Crisis.

GiveWell Community Foundation and United Way of Central Florida will continually evaluate the needs of our communities. Due to the changing nature of this outbreak, the types of projects and available funding from this Fund may also shift over time.
