Letter of Intent 2026
Community Impact Grant Program
The Letter of Intent (LOI) is the first in a two step grant-making process used by the Cape and Islands United Way. The purpose of the LOI is to provide a brief snapshot of the program for which funding is being requested.
All applicants will receive a status update after the the LOIs are reviewed; you will be notified if your organization is invited to submit a full grant application in February.
