How to Work with United Way: A Guide for Santa Barbara County Non-Profits

United Way of Santa Barbara County is a volunteer-led organization that mobilizes the resources and strategic thinking of the nonprofit, private, and public sectors to improve lives, strengthen the community, and build a stronger Santa Barbara County. Recognizing the unique and valuable role that nonprofit agencies play in the city’s overall human service system, we partner with a range of nonprofit organizations – from large agencies to small, community-based groups in three primary ways.

1. Partners: We partner with selected organizations to brainstorm, create prototypes and carry out the on-the-ground operations of our Community Action Initiatives.

2. Affiliates: We provide qualified community-based organizations with financial, technical, and in-kind supports to enable them to fulfill their missions and develop their infrastructures.

3. Grantees: We provide grants to community-based organizations in support of specific services through a variety of community investment mechanisms, government-funded programs, and supporters collaborative that we administer.
