Weil Foundation Grant

The Weil Foundation provides grants to advance integrative medicine through education, research, and policy reform. Primarily aimed at non-profit healthcare organizations and medical schools, these grants support the development of educational programs in integrative medicine. Each grant is awarded for one year, with the possibility for recipients to apply for additional funding in subsequent years. The Foundation emphasizes cooperation, respect for grant-seekers, and transparency in its operations.

Weil Foundation was created as a long-term funding mechanism for the advancement of integrative medicine through training, research, the education of the public, and policy reform. The Foundation offers a limited number of grants each year to non-profit
organizations to help finance efforts to advance Integrative Medicine. These grants are usually "start-up" grants to assist medical schools and/or residency programs to develop educational programs in integrative medicine. They are awarded for one year. Awardees can apply for additional one year grants in subsequent years.
Our Operating Principles
In its operations, the Weil Foundation seeks to express the values underlying integrative medicine and the best practices of philanthropy. The Foundation will:

• Cooperate with other organizations in order to achieve the greatest impact
• Treat all grant-seekers the same and with respect
• Provide clear and timely information to the public about the Foundation’s policies, practices, decisions, and finances
• Be open to new ideas, critiques & suggestions, while also protecting itself from inappropriate influence

The Weil Foundation believes that training in Integrative Medicine during these years of residency can impact and transform many of the deficiencies of undergraduate medical education.
