OUR IMPACT
We come alongside local agencies and programs that strengthen and enhance health, education and financial stability in Tompkins County. Impact Partners provide our neighbors in Tompkins County with services and resources that allow them to continue to build healthy, secure and joyful lives in which they thrive.
Our Impact Partners receive financial resources through service agreements with UWTC and/or a grant process in a comprehensive community investment plan which is reviewed and adjusted annually. Our programs and grants are managed by a professional staff with strong input from dedicated community volunteers. Community volunteers evaluate all grant applications, determine alongside staff where to invest UWTC resources to achieve the greatest community impact, and evaluate progress being made through those investments towards achieving UWTC's identified goals and outcomes.
UWTC Impact Areas:
- Access to Safe, Affordable Housing
- Childhood and Youth Success
