Application for Assistance

The Greater Valdosta United Way has a very limited budget to help those in need. Applications generally open the first week of the month and close within days due to the overwhelming need. If our applications below are closed, please check below for additional resources in the community that may be able to assist.

​

Please read the following before completing an application for assistance:

• Unfortunately, we do not have funding for rental assistance at this time.

• Please allow at least 3 days to process your application.

• Please check your email. Email is our first method of communication.

• Please upload a copy of your photo I.D. and a copy of the utility bill to the application. A screenshot is acceptable; just be sure all information is legible. Failing to do so will prolong the process.

• If you have trouble uploading your documents to the application, please send them to assistance@gvuw.org.

• Applications are processed on a first-come, first-served basis. If you cannot be reached in a reasonable amount of time, we will move on to the next applicant.

• Completing the application is NOT a guarantee of assistance.

• If you have received assistance from our organization in the past, you are ineligible to reapply for one full year and a day from the date of assistance.

For any additional questions or concerns, email us at assistance@gvuw.org.
