About Arrowhead United Way
Arrowhead United Way’s largest recent grants show a pattern of large, mission-based support for local community organizations in San Bernardino County. In 2023 and 2024, the foundation backed Castle Rock Christian Fellowship, Cedar House Life Change Center, Benjamin E Jones Community Resource, and the Salvation Army with grants ranging from $132,595 to $226,198, all labeled support mission. That same pattern appears across its newer awards, where the foundation continues funding organizations that work in health, education, financial stability, basic needs, youth scholarships, veterans services, and volunteer mobilization. The foundation also runs named programs alongside its grantmaking, including Success on the Horizon STEM Scholarship for local high school seniors pursuing STEM degrees, Project M.E.D for eligible nonprofit organizations needing medical supplies and equipment, and Emergency Assistance Fund for local individuals and families. Its public-facing work is tightly tied to San Bernardino County, with grants landing entirely in California and recent recipients including San Bernardino City Unified School District, Healthy Teeth for Kids, and Loma Linda Hospital. The overall picture is of a community funder using both direct grants and program channels to support local service delivery and continuity.

Basic needs and emergency response appear through the Emergency Assistance Fund and the Basic Needs program, both aimed at local individuals and families in the service region.
