Uplifting the meaningful work being done to build a healthier region where all people can thrive
In our October 2025 newsletter our Grantee Spotlight shines on ROC the Future Alliance’s presentation at the StriveTogether Cradle to Career Convening in Atlanta, where parent partners and community organizations highlighted how data, advocacy, and collaboration are driving housing stability and improved outcomes for Rochester families.
In our September 2025 newsletter, we’re resharing our 2020–2024 Highlights: What We’ve Built Together – Reflecting on Five Years of Listening, Growing, & Advancing Health Equity. Over this time, we’ve worked to center equity, broaden our reach across all nine counties we serve, and remove barriers to funding — especially for organizations led by and rooted in community.
Greater Rochester Health Foundation and Rochester Area Community Foundation have partnered to invest $2.1 million to expand local health equity resources. Grants will support 32 grassroots and nonprofit organizations across nine counties, advancing community-led solutions in mental health, food security, and basic needs.
