The United Way of Van Wert County allots funds called Community Impact Funding to be awarded to qualified applicants each year. $3,000 was recently granted to help further the Convoy Village Square Project. The Convoy Village Square is the former location of a hardware and grocery store located in the center of Convoy. The Convoy Community Foundation is providing matching funds up to $7,500 to complete the project. The United Way also aided in awarding the project a $1,000 grant through Serve Ohio.
