This funding opportunity provides financial assistance for healthcare services to low-income residents of Halifax County, Virginia, ensuring they can access necessary medical treatment and support.
The Clark Memorial Fund is a private philanthropic foundation established under the Last Will and Testament of Elise Thomson Clark. Based in Halifax County, Virginia, the fund honors the memory of Ms. Clark's parents and is administered by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. through its Trust Philanthropic Services. The fund exists to support healthcare services for needy and indigent residents of Halifax County, emphasizing accessibility for individuals who lack the financial means to afford necessary medical treatment. The primary objective of the Clark Memorial Fund is to defray the costs associated with hospitalization and to provide general medical services to residents in financial distress. These services may include surgical care, nursing, medications, treatment, and related hospital care, whether provided during inpatient or outpatient treatment at licensed hospitals. In addition to these core priorities, the fund also considers proposals that support educational and preventative health programs tailored to vulnerable populations in the region. Eligible applicants must be tax-exempt organizations under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Furthermore, all funded activities must directly benefit individuals classified as needy and indigent within Halifax County. The fund uses a detailed definition for such individuals, including those without sufficient income, assets, or access to credit, and those unable to provide for hospitalization costs for themselves or their dependents. The application process is administered online and is open year-round. However, to be considered for the annual funding cycle, completed applications must be submitted by July 1. Submissions received by this date are reviewed at the fund's August meeting. Following this review, applicants are generally informed of funding decisions by September. An automated email confirms each submission. Grant recipients are typically required to submit a progress report within nine months of receiving the funds, unless otherwise specified in their grant agreement. Program funding is restricted geographically to Halifax County, Virginia. The fund is not available to applicants or beneficiaries located outside this region.
