Mission & Focus Areas

Mayo Clinic’s stated mission is “to inspire hope and contribute to health and well-being by providing the best care to every patient through integrated clinical practice, education and research.” Its community engagement vision is to be a proactive partner, inclusive of diverse and underserved populations, and to support efforts addressing community health needs and community vibrancy.

The Community Contributions Program provides grants to registered 501(c)(3) nonprofits in Mayo Clinic service areas for programs aligned with local Community Health Needs Assessment priorities. Local priorities vary. For example, Rochester’s priorities include access to care, mental health and food security; Florida’s include access to care, mental health and access to nutritious food; and Arizona’s include access to care, social drivers of health and cancer care.

Recipients listed in Mayo Clinic’s 2024 filing include universities, healthcare and research organizations, and community nonprofits. The grantees describe their own missions: United Way of Southeast Minnesota says it inspires hope, creates opportunity and champions people in need; Hennepin Healthcare Research Institute says it works to improve patient care and community health through research and education. These are descriptions of the grantees, not Mayo Clinic’s stated priorities.

Grantmaking

In filing year 2024, Mayo Clinic reported 256 grants totaling $572,102,597. Grant amounts ranged from $5,005 to $120,250,322, with a median of $59,957. Many of the largest awards went to Mayo Clinic entities and regional health system organizations for “support charitable programs.” Other grants supported research programs.

Among the largest reported grants were $120,250,322 to Mayo Clinic Jacksonville, $118,423,244 to MCHS–Southwest Minnesota Region, $97,499,392 to Mayo Clinic Arizona, $95,970,322 to MCHS–Southwest Wisconsin Region Inc., and $65,126,108 to Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research. Research awards included $3,185,286 to the University of California San Francisco and $2,123,485 to the Regents of the University of Minnesota.

Mayo’s community engagement pages describe local grant programs. In Rochester, eligible nonprofits serving Olmsted County may apply for one community grant per fiscal year. Applications are reviewed competitively, funding is limited, and requests should be for new or ongoing programs aligned with the local health assessment priorities. Florida program information describes funding for local and regional initiatives addressing identified health priorities. The Florida program listings identify grant areas for access to care, mental health and access to nutritious food, and say organizations should request funding no more than once per calendar year; event sponsorship requests should not be included in grant applications.
