The Loudoun County COVID-19 Vaccine Equity Program seeks grant applications from community organizations to ensure greater equity and access to the COVID-19 vaccine for populations disproportionately affected by the pandemic. This program aligns with the broader mission of public health and community well-being by addressing disparities in vaccine access and promoting health equity. It is administered by the Loudoun County Health Department and supported through federal acts, highlighting a strategic priority to leverage government funding for targeted community health interventions. The program's target beneficiaries are priority populations identified by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. These include racial and ethnic minority groups, individuals in rural communities, people with disabilities, the homebound or isolated, the underinsured or uninsured, immigrants and/or refugees, and those with transportation limitations. The primary impact goal is to increase access to COVID-19 vaccination and the number of vaccinated individuals within these groups, thereby reducing health disparities and protecting vulnerable populations.

This includes funding for project staff, travel to vaccination sites, facility and vehicle rentals for off-site clinics, bus passes to facilitate transportation, associated costs for operating clinics, health communications, education services, and software for information flow. The strategic focus is on removing barriers to vaccination and supporting community-based efforts that can effectively reach and engage these priority populations. Expected outcomes include a measurable increase in vaccination rates among the identified priority populations and a reduction in the equity gap in vaccine access. The program also aims to build on existing community rapport and trust, emphasizing the importance of local reach and experienced messengers. By supporting organizations with demonstrated capacity and experience in community health promotion and working with affected communities, the grant intends to achieve sustainable improvements in public health and health equity within Loudoun County.

The Douglas County Community Foundation (DCCF) Community Grants program is dedicated to improving the lives of Douglas County, Kansas residents by supporting a wide array of local projects. The foundation aligns its mission with community needs by funding initiatives across various sectors, including arts and culture, animal welfare, children and youth, community development, education, environment, health, housing, and human services. This broad scope reflects the foundation's commitment to fostering a holistic and thriving community within Douglas County. The primary beneficiaries of these grants are the residents of Douglas County, Kansas. The program's impact goals are centered on enhancing the quality of life for these residents through tangible improvements in the supported areas. By investing in diverse projects, DCCF aims to address multiple facets of community well-being, from educational opportunities and environmental conservation to health services and cultural enrichment. DCCF prioritizes requests that are clearly and concisely described, supported by complete and clear income and expense projections, and do not require recurring funding for the same project or purpose. The foundation also favors one-time requests or projects that can reasonably ensure sustainability after the initial DCCF funding is utilized. This strategic focus ensures that grants create lasting positive change and promote self-sufficiency within recipient organizations and their initiatives. Expected outcomes include a measurable improvement in the lives of Douglas County residents within the supported areas. While specific measurable results are not detailed in the provided text, the emphasis on clear project descriptions and sound financial planning suggests an expectation of accountability and demonstrable impact. The foundation's theory of change appears to be rooted in empowering local nonprofit organizations, tribal entities, and local governments to implement projects that directly address community needs and foster long-term positive change. The foundation's strategic priorities are evident in its eligibility criteria and limitations on grantmaking. Proposals must come from 501(c)(3) nonprofits, tribal entities, or local governments, and must benefit Douglas County residents. Organizations must also operate without discrimination. DCCF explicitly does not fund multi-year requests, general operating expenses, individual support, annual campaigns, endowment funds, event sponsorships, fundraising events, religious purposes, lobbying, political activities, or debt retirement. These limitations ensure that the grants are focused on direct project support that aligns with the foundation's mission of community improvement.
