What We Believe Partners for Health Foundation is a community-based organization that works toward a vision of thriving communities ensuring health for all. Partners for Health invests in programs, policies and organizations that lead to healthy communities and increased opportunities to thrive. We know that everyone prospers when the needs of those who experience health inequities are recognized and supported.

We seek to address the factors that influence health, from the individual level to the policy level. Small Grants Small Grant Requests (up to $15,000) are accepted on a rolling basis, and can be accessed in our grants management system. Types of Grantmaking Partners for Health Foundation provides funding to organizations and communities in two ways. General Operating Grants: Can strengthen an organization and its ability to change systems, listen to constituents, advocate for long term policy change, and determine how to measure outcomes incrementally on the journey toward their overall goals. Project Grants: To support specific initiatives, projects, and collaborative efforts to shift the conditions that prevent communities from thriving. Funding Priorities During the review process, priority will be given to proposals that demonstrate the following: Focused on health equity Working to improve how services are provided, based on feedback from constituents served (i.e., viewing issues at their source through a systems-perspective, or through a social determinant of health lens) Collaborate with others to strengthen service provision, alleviate gaps in services, and leverage dollars and other resources Data driven (i.e., how does your organization ensure measurable outcomes for your constituents?)
