Women united project
Award application
Women United is a powerful, passionate network of women who influence change in Licking County through a focused investment of our time, talent, and resources. We are working to promote positive social change by empowering women and children through project grants to local non-profits, raising awareness of issues and opportunities facing women and children in Licking County, and by supporting the work of United Way.
This unique driving force leads to positive social change by creating standards of achievement.
At our 2024 Woman of Achievement dinner, we awarded three grants totaling $3,540 to Mental Health of America, Summit Station, PBJ Connections and Behavioral Healthcare Partners.
Membership gifts help provide support to Women United’s signature projects and general support to United Way and their Community Impact Grants program.
Project Information
Deadline: December 8, 2024
Please be aware, funding is limited to $2,000 per project.
Because Women United can make awards only for projects, we ask that applicants focus their requests solely on project-based requests that support women, children, and families in Licking County. Projects are different from programs insofar as programs are usually ongoing and encompass a range of elements that benefit the community, whereas projects will center on a single, specific task or element, will operate within an established timeframe, and will pursue a specific and tangible outcome.
Some examples of items that have been funded in the past: Supplies for therapeutic art projects, a pilot program offering meals at support group events, fees for speakers/trainers, technology acquisition to extend the services of an on-going program.
Some examples of things that cannot be funded are brand-new programs, salaries, and benefits.
Completed applications can be completed by signing in here and/or emailing Luellen Deeds at
