More than just a celebration, Power of the Purse plays a vital role in supporting United Way of Midland’s community investment efforts. Proceeds from the event fund our annual Innovative Grant program. Each year, these one-time grants support local nonprofits launching or expanding programs that improve health, education, and financial stability throughout Midland.
One recent Innovative Grant recipient was 3:11 Ministries, which provided Midland College students experiencing homelessness and housing insecurity with essential dorm supplies, including bedding, hygiene items, and technology. By helping students meet their basic needs, the program creates stability and allows them to focus on their education and future success.
By attending Power of the Purse, you’re investing in innovative community solutions that help local organizations respond to critical needs and create lasting change.
