Summary
This funding opportunity is designed to support efforts that improve health and wellbeing in communities where disparities persist. Each year, financial resources are provided to help mission-driven organizations implement programs and strategies that address a wide range of factors influencing health outcomes, including economic opportunity, education, social supports, and access to services. The focus is on empowering local partners who understand the unique needs of their regions and are positioned to create lasting, positive impact for people who experience the greatest barriers to health and opportunity.
Eligible applicants are typically nonprofit organizations with a clear commitment to serving communities within a specific geographic area in the northeastern United States. These organizations can apply for support to expand existing initiatives or launch new efforts that align with broad objectives around equity, community wellness, and systemic change. While individuals and small businesses are generally not the intended recipients of this funding, certain programs within the overall opportunity may include components that indirectly benefit individuals or support collaborations that involve business partners as part of a community project.
Award amounts vary depending on the scale and scope of the proposed work, with some grants providing meaningful multi-year support for large community-wide partnerships and others offering targeted funding for specific programmatic goals. Applicants are encouraged to articulate clearly how the funds will be used, how the work aligns with overarching goals to reduce inequities, and how outcomes will be measured and sustained over time.
Deadlines and application cycles may vary, with opportunities announced periodically throughout the year. Selection is generally competitive, based on factors such as alignment with strategic priorities, clarity of purpose, potential for impact, and the organization’s capacity to deliver results. This grant opportunity offers a valuable resource for nonprofits seeking to deepen their impact, strengthen communities, and contribute to long-term improvements in health equity and quality of life within the region they serve.
