Summary

Overview

Major Grant Fund Apply for $50,000 to $200,000 per year, renewable up to two times for a total of three years of funding. Funds may support health-related direct service delivery or advocacy efforts. New for 2026, Major Grant funds can also support evaluation projects. Funding Principles Projects funded by the Health Equity Fund should align with the following funding principles: Improving health outcomes and access for communities and populations experiencing the deepest and most persistent health and economic disparities in King County. Actively addressing the issues of systemic, structural, and institutional barriers including racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, income inequality, and other forms of oppression or discrimination that negatively impact healthcare delivery and health outcomes. Partnering or collaborating with other organizations to enhance the impact of addressing health disparities. Building capacity and empowerment for communities addressing health disparities. Funding for service delivery is limited to King County. There are no geographic restrictions on the residence of clients served or advocacy efforts, as long as the program can demonstrate the use of funds addressing disparities in health among residents of the Puget Sound region (King, Snohomish, Pierce, and Kitsap counties). Organizations may not receive two PHPDA grants in the same year for the same project. Applicants can request grant funds for a different project as long as the time period covered by funding ends by the new contract period. Organizations may only submit one application. Focus Areas Specific populations are facing heightened threats to their safety, security, and access to care, and the organizations that support them are experiencing drastic funding cuts. Our Major Grant program aims to support these organizations who are facing disproportionate burdens to their wellbeing. This year, Major Grants will be limited to organizations with projects in one or more of these three focus areas: Gender Affirming Care and/or HIV Prevention and Care for LGBTQIA2S+ CommunitiesBarrier-Reducing Healthcare Delivery for Immigrant and Refugee Populations that is Responsive to Community Concerns Access to Birth Control and Abortion Care
