GWCF: Health Equity Fund - Demonstration Projects Grant

The GWCF Health Equity Fund supports demonstration projects aimed at addressing health disparities through collaborative partnerships. By focusing on social determinants of health, the fund seeks innovative solutions that enhance economic mobility and community wealth. Eligible applicants are encouraged to submit Letters of Intent for funding to implement scalable models that promote equitable health outcomes. This initiative emphasizes the importance of strategic collaboration among organizations to tackle systemic inequities effectively.

NOTE: Qualified respondents are invited to submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) until the specified deadline (or until funds have been exhausted). Responses will be considered on a rolling basis.
Achieving health equity requires more than improving individual health outcomes and expanding access to services. A vision for health equity demands that we directly engage the social determinants of health —societal factors that have been shaped by centuries of laws, public policies, behaviors, and practices that have worked together to produce the disparate outcomes we see today.
The Health Equity Fund will offer grant opportunities for demonstration projects that provide proof of concept and determine potential for scalability. The projects must consist of two or more partner organizations working collaboratively in a new and targeted way to implement economic mobility models that increase strategic economic participation and build community wealth for people and communities with the greatest economic and health disparities.
