Welcome to the 2019 United Way Student Impact Committee Grant
Application!
United Way of Central New Brunswick has
partnered with the Leadership Class at McAdam High School to form a Student

give high school students the opportunity to take on a leadership role in their
community. This allows them to gain experience in areas of teamwork, time
management, fund management, communication skills, engagement and volunteering,
and public speaking.
The students
will be evaluating each application based on its alignment with United Way’s
Focus and Investment areas, its impact on the community, and its fit with the
identified interests of the UW Student Impact Committee.

in promoting the project throughout the school and broader community.
All investments align with United Way's mission, investment

Healthy People, Strong Communities
Moving people From Poverty to Possibility
Helping Kids be All That Kids Can Be
