Forsyth United Way/Summer Learning/Funds.

HB 392 appropriates $250,000 in one-time state funds for the 2025-2026 fiscal year to The United Way of Forsyth County, Inc., to fund summer learning programs for students in Forsyth County who would otherwise not have access to such programs through their local school system. The United Way will issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) to contract with community agencies offering these programs, either extending existing services or partnering with vetted new organizations. This bill directly affects eligible Forsyth County students and community agencies providing summer learning support, with funds becoming available July 1, 2025. The legislation focuses on creating a structured grant process to expand educational opportunities during summer months.
