community groups and organizations, local governments, faith -based groups, and other non-profit
groups to conduct and provide a variety of activities with the goal of helping to improve the lives of
local citizens most in jeopardy to remain safe, warm and fed through the winter.
A small pool of funds is available in the United Way of Eastern Maine 2013 Neighbors Helping
Neighbors Small Grant Program. Requests for funding are limited to $3,050. The Department of
Health and Community Services has applied for United Way funds in the amount of $3,050 for fuel
assistance for individuals/families when no other option is available. Due to the short grant
application timeframe, staff applied for the funding, and this Order will ratify the grant application,
and will accept funding, if approved.
