About Mile High United Way, Inc.
Mile High United Way, Inc., a Denver-based tax-exempt nonprofit organization, serves as a federal grant recipient in community development, workforce assistance, and tax preparation programs, with 88% of recent awards held as prime recipient and 12% as sub-recipient under state-administered grants.
The organization's federal footprint is concentrated in two recurring grant programs. The Internal Revenue Service's Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Matching Grant Program (CFDA 21.009) accounts for five awards across the portfolio spanning 2021 through 2026, each carrying a $330,000 federal award with a matching requirement. In the most recent cycle (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026), Mile High United Way received $330,000 to provide free tax return preparation and electronic filing services to low-to-moderate income populations and underserved communities in Colorado, including persons with disabilities, limited English proficiency populations, Native Americans, rural residents, military members and families, and elderly taxpayers. The recipient must ensure at least 90 percent of prepared returns serve individuals whose earned income does not exceed EITC thresholds and file all eligible returns electronically.
Beyond VITA, Mile High United Way holds three awards from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under Economic Development Initiative and Community Project Funding mechanisms, with ultimate completion dates extending through 2032. The organization also received a Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) project grant for its Bridging the Gap program, which provides supportive services and housing vouchers to homeless youth ages eighteen through twenty-four transitioning from child welfare systems, with behavioral health services, basic needs support, education, financial health coaching, and workforce preparation elements.
Activity has grown modestly, from one award in 2021 to three in both 2024 and 2025. Only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Mile High United Way also serves as a sub-recipient under grants from the Colorado Department of Early Childhood (two sub-awards in 2025) focused on child care access and affordability. The top customer agencies by award count are the Internal Revenue Service (five awards), the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (three awards), and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (three awards), together accounting for 94% of recent awards. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $31 million.
