About this grant
The Flint National Service Accelerator Fund at the United Way of Genesee County helps Flint and Genesee County agencies leverage state and national service members through AmeriCorps and its affiliates. Flint area service members support projects aligned with the City of Flint’s Master Plan, emerging community needs and state and federal priorities. Focus areas in Flint include: 1) community education; 2) public safety; 3) health; 4) nutrition; and 5) climate change. Matching grants from the fund provide resources to local nonprofit agencies for the required member cost share and training. The United Way of Genesee County administers the fund, which also provides staffing for the Flint National Service Accelerator Initiative.
