    About Tulsa Area United Way

    Tulsa Area United Way’s recent grant pattern shows a repeated commitment to large, multi-year support for local safety-net providers and community collaborators. Family & Children's Services appears as a major partner, including a $1,356,492 grant in 2023 for a community response team and a $1,192,968 grant in 2024 tied to the same collaboration. The Salvation Army also received repeated funding at $1,300,515 in 2023, 2024, and 2025, with purposes spanning health and safety, financial stability, education, financial security, and youth opportunities. Across the grant list, the foundation backs organizations working on family stability, youth opportunity, healthy communities, and financial security, often through agencies that serve multiple needs at once. The recent record also includes support for domestic violence intervention, early childhood and safe babies work, senior services, housing stability, and community resiliency. Grants are concentrated in Tulsa and are structured around partner agencies that can deliver direct services, collaboration, and systems-level response across the local service area.

    What Tulsa Area United Way Funds

    Health and safety is a recurring theme in the recent grants. Domestic Violence Intervention Services received $931,425 in 2025 for healthy community work, following $931,425 in 2024 and $882,849 in 2023 for health and safety and financial stability. In youth development, Youth Services of Tulsa received $890,461 in 2025 for healthy community, youth opportunities, and financial security, after similar support in 2023 and 2024. Early childhood and family support also appears through The Parent Child Center of Tulsa, which received $618,249 in 2025 for youth opportunities and Safe Babies Court. Financial security and stability show up in grants to Goodwill Industries of Tulsa, including $651,351 in 2025 and $651,351 in 2024, and to Community Action Project of Tulsa County, which received $686,031 in 2025 for youth opportunities and financial security.

    How Tulsa Area United Way Gives

    Typical awards are mid-to-large: the grant-size distribution is p25 $80,000, median $160,000, and p75 $397,890. The recent grants list shows repeated support to the same organizations across 2023 through 2025, including The Salvation Army, Family & Children's Services, Youth Services of Tulsa, Domestic Violence Intervention Services, and Goodwill Industries of Tulsa. That pattern suggests ongoing partner funding rather than isolated one-off awards. Tulsa Area United Way is a mixed community foundation and does not fund individuals or program-related investments. Its active programs also note that unsolicited applications are not accepted in several tracks, including Social Innovations Grants, Challenge Grants, NTech Collaborative, Sustainability Funding, Nonprofit Capacity Building, and the Siemer Institute Partnership.
