UNITED WAY OF GREATER NASHUA INC

In 2025 United Way of Greater Nashua continued to expand its role in the community as a fiscal agent sponsor. Through this work, we are sponsoring organizations such as Upbeat NH, The Nashua Prevention Coalition, The One Greater Nashua Coalition, Grow Nashua, Michael J OMara fund, and Meals Matter. As their fiscal sponsor, United Way unburdens these groups of the responsibility to form their own 501c3 organizations, file their own 990, manage payroll, and attain insurance. This gives the groups a greatly enhanced ability to do more work in the community without the need for overhead and administrative expenses. The UWGN sees this type of fiscal agency work as a key initiative to get more missions-centric work done in the community on a cost effective basis by leveraging the skills and capacity of United Way.

United Way of Greater Nashua utilizes a unique community assessment and investment cycle in order to maximize the impact of investments in the community. This process includes conducting a thorough assessment of the greatest needs of the community in the areas of health, education, and economic mobility/financial stability. Through this process, critical needs are brought to light and then presented to the Non-Profit partner community for programmatic grant proposals. Thus, the investments made by UWGN in the community are guaranteed to responsibly steward donor dollars toward the greatest needs and impact areas. Beginning March 2020 through the end of this current fiscal year, UWGN provided substantial community support relative to the coronavirus pandemic. This included making emergency community grants, acquiring and distributing critical PPE, supporting community food supports, and helping students get access to internet and technology for
