Mission & Focus Areas

The organization’s stated mission is to improve people’s lives in Pasco County by identifying the community’s most important health and human-service needs, advocating, and developing resources and partnerships.

Its focus areas are human trafficking and domestic violence; mental health; substance addiction; adult and child abuse; economic mobility; physical health; homelessness; and youth success and education. Its 2024 filing also describes a human-trafficking program offering short- and long-term housing and connections to other services for survivors and their families, a free tax-preparation and asset-building initiative for low-income families, and a 24/7 2-1-1 information, referral, and advocacy helpline.

Examples of organizations receiving 2025 grants illustrate the range of services supported. Sunrise of Pasco describes its work as preventing and treating spouse abuse and providing free services to victims of domestic or sexual violence. Good Samaritan Health Clinic says it provides free primary medical and dental care to eligible Pasco County residents. Pasco Kids First describes its work as preventing child abuse, strengthening families, and providing therapy for children affected by trauma. Bridging Freedom says it works to combat domestic minor sex trafficking through restoration and prevention. These are the grantees’ stated missions, not United Way’s.

Grantmaking

In filing year 2025, United Way reported 42 grants totaling $584,000. The grants ranged from $6,000 to $28,250, with a median of $13,250; all reported grant dollars went to recipients in Florida. Among the largest awards were $28,250 to ARC Nature Coast, $25,000 to Sunrise of Pasco, $24,000 to Boys and Girls Club of Tampa Bay, and $23,500 to Bay Area Legal Services. Other notable awards included $20,000 each to Bridging Freedom, Good Samaritan Health Clinic, Lighthouse for the Blind, Pasco Kids First, Suncoast Voices for Children, and Youth and Family Alternatives, and $19,000 to Feeding Pasco’s Elderly.

The organization’s website describes Community Impact Grants as a competitive program for agency partners, with awards aligned to its focus areas. It reported distributing $600,000 to 50 Pasco-based nonprofit agencies for fiscal year 2024–2025; that award announcement is distinct from the filing-year grant totals above. For the 2026–2027 cycle, agencies had to serve Pasco County residents, have 501(c)(3) status or another IRS-recognized nonprofit designation, and provide services within a focus area. The application requirements listed included a determination letter, recent fiscal audit and Form 990, current volunteer board roster, and current board-approved agency budget. The process called for a mandatory Letter of Intent, followed by full applications by invitation and a panel presentation. How to apply: The stated process begins with a Letter of Intent; full applications are available only to invited agencies. The 2026–2027 cycle’s Letter of Intent deadline was March 20, 2026, and has passed.
