Approaches to our Grantmaking

Racial Health Equity

We are surrounded by an overwhelming amount of data and evidence on inequitable health outcomes that does not need repeating. What’s required now is action.

Partnerships

We are committed to listening to and collaborating with people across communities, sectors, and across differences, in recognition that we accomplish more together.  

Healthy & Equitable Futures

Whole child health is an integrated state of physical, cognitive, social and emotional health and well-being in which children are developmentally on track in each of these areas.

Your Ideas

We welcome the opportunity to speak with prospective grantees about their ideas to improve the health of the community. These conversations are helpful to us in revealing community health issues and needs and can also help an organization determine if it is a good use of its resources to submit a Letter of Intent and a full proposal. Organizations are invited to speak with our executive staff or senior program officers at any time.
