Mission & Focus Areas
QueensCare’s stated mission is to provide a continuum of quality health and hospital care to medically underserved residents of Los Angeles County. Its charitable grants support 501(c)(3) nonprofit agencies providing healthcare services to low-income county residents. The website says applications must align with the purposes of one or more of QueensCare’s 13 healthcare funds, and it gives preference to agencies that have operated successfully for at least three years.
QueensCare’s stated grant focus includes healthcare programs and services, community health initiatives, expanding access to care, and improving health outcomes. Its website identifies inpatient healthcare, outpatient healthcare, emergency medical services, and the QueensCare Health and Faith Partnership among the purposes addressed by its funds.
The supported organizations have varied missions. PIH Health Good Samaritan Hospital says it provides high-quality healthcare without discrimination and contributes to community health and well-being. White Memorial Medical Center describes its mission as “Living Gods love by inspiring health, wholeness and hope.” Westside Family Health Center says it provides comprehensive, high-quality, cost-effective care in a supportive environment. Other 2025 grantees include organizations whose stated missions address community health and health disparities, children’s and family services, and support for people experiencing homelessness.

QueensCare also awarded $272,328 to Los Angeles General Medical Center for that purpose.
The website’s grant inquiry page says QueensCare is undergoing a strategic refresh and invites organizations to submit an inquiry to express interest in potential future funding. The listed inquiry asks about the organization’s mission and proposed project, requested funding amount, eligibility-related services, and interest in partnering with QueensCare Health Alliance for onsite services. The website says QueensCare will be in touch if it determines an organization may be eligible. A separate grant-program listing describes Charitable Grants as currently open, but no deadline is stated.
QueensCare also offers the John Joseph Brandlin Scholarship Fund for students preparing for healthcare careers. It provides scholarships of up to $10,000 per year based on financial need and academic performance, with eligibility requirements including minimum GPA thresholds.
