United Ways of California is glad to announce that we have received a grant from United Way Worldwide to provide scholarships for local United Ways to attend the 2024 United Way Western Regional Conference. This grant is being made available given the expiration of the United Way flex credit program on December 31, 2023. We are most grateful to United Way Worldwide for making these funds available. After consulting with our conference co-chairs and planning committee, we are pleased to announce the following scholarship program:

Before applying discount codes to your registration, please note the following:
- Discounts for local United Ways are limited to four per local United Way, and scholarship registrations may not be canceled or refunded consistent with our cancellation policy. If you receive a scholarship and are unable to attend, you may send another staff or board member from your organization in your stead, and submit that request to events@unitedwaysca.org by Friday, July 26, 2024 at 5:00 PM PST.
- If you are unaware of your local United Way’s 2022 Current Year Support (total revenue), you may consult your local leadership on what they reported to United Way Worldwide in the annual DB2 survey, visit PerformanceLink on United Way Online, or write to events@unitedwaysca.org. United Ways of California will randomly verify Current Year Support figures as discount coupons are applied. Any misuse of registration discounts may result in the cancellation of your registration.
- A scholarship application must be completed for Young United Way Leaders of Color by Friday, April 13, 2024. Scholarship applicants will be notified of their selection by April 30, 2024. These full registration scholarships are limited to two per local United Way, are non-transferrable, and recipients must commit to be present for the entire conference starting with the Welcome Reception on August 6 through the closing plenary on August 9, 2024.
- No discounts are eligible for hotel costs, transportation or per diem expenses. The scholarship program is exclusive to registration only.
- Scholarship opportunities for local United Ways are available on a first come, first serve basis until scholarship funds are depleted, or until Friday, April 13, 2024. United Ways of California will monitor the utilization of the scholarship program and reserves the right to make changes in the best interest of the United Way network.
- By applying a discount code, local United Ways technically receive two discounts to participate in the 2024 United Way Western Regional Conference. The early bird registration discount of $75 is effective through July 15, 2024, and the scholarship discount is effective through April 13, 2024.
