OVERVIEW OF PROGRAM
United Way of Central Ohio and the Macy’s Foundation are pleased to announce a
unique opportunity for capacity building at the neighborhood level through a new
program, the Vibrant Neighborhoods Toolbox Curriculum and Grant. Each selected
organization will complete a focused curriculum intended to improve the skill sets
of neighborhood organizations and increase resident involvement. Upon
completion of the curriculum, the participating organization will receive a $1,500
mini-grant to implement a project in alignment with the curriculum.
In October 2008, eight classes on four topics will be delivered over a four week
schedule. A representative from the participating organization must take each of
the eight classes. An individual can take as many of the eight classes as they
would like, but multiple participants are encouraged. Each organization can send
up to 3 people per class.
