Grants for Nonprofits - Health

The Franklin Mint Federal Credit Union Foundation is currently accepting applications for its Community Grant program, designed to strengthen nonprofits and enhance community programs. This initiative aligns with the Foundation's mission to make the community a better place by supporting projects and programs that address critical needs. Each grant will fund up to $1,000, which can be used for either the continuation of an existing program or the launch of a new initiative. The Foundation's strategic priorities are deeply embedded in the grant's focus areas, ensuring that funded projects contribute directly to their overarching theory of change: investing in key community pillars leads to a more empowered and resilient society. The 2024 Community Nonprofit Grants are specifically focused on four key pillars: Education, Community Impact, Social Vulnerability, and Healthcare. Within the Education pillar, the goal is to empower students by providing them with the necessary tools for success inside the classroom. The Community Impact pillar aims to improve the communities that FMFCU serves, fostering environments where residents can thrive. The Social Vulnerability pillar tackles significant challenges such as poverty, food insecurity, and the repercussions of disasters and illness, working towards tangible solutions for vulnerable populations. Lastly, the Healthcare pillar is dedicated to enabling healthcare institutions to make quality decisions that ultimately benefit patients. Target beneficiaries for these grants include a broad spectrum of individuals and groups within the specified geographic areas, particularly those served by nonprofits focusing on the aforementioned pillars. The impact goals are directly tied to the objectives of each pillar, ranging from improved educational outcomes for students to enhanced community well-being, reduced social vulnerabilities, and improved healthcare access and quality. Expected outcomes for funded projects include tangible improvements such as increased access to educational resources, cleaner and safer community spaces, greater food security for at-risk populations, and better health outcomes for patients. While specific measurable results will be defined by individual grant recipients, the Foundation anticipates that the projects will demonstrate clear progress against the stated goals of each pillar. For instance, educational programs might track student achievement or participation rates, community impact projects could measure improvements in local infrastructure or engagement, social vulnerability initiatives might report on the number of individuals served or reductions in specific challenges, and healthcare projects could track patient satisfaction or access to care. The Foundation's theory of change posits that by strategically investing in these four pillars, they can create a ripple effect, leading to long-term, sustainable positive change across the community. Eligibility for the grant program is open to organizations with a 501(c)(3) status that are located in Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, or New Castle counties, West Philadelphia, or University City. This geographic focus ensures that the grants directly benefit the communities where Franklin Mint Federal Credit Union operates and where its members reside. The application deadline for the grant is June 30, 2024. This program is a testament to the Foundation's commitment to supporting local efforts that resonate with its core values and strategic vision for community development and upliftment.

The Washington State Department of Commerce (Commerce) is offering grant funding through its Community Reinvestment Project (CRP) to support community healer services. This initiative aims to address violence and its systemic roots, particularly in Black, Latine, and tribal communities, which have been historically impacted by the "war on drugs" and systemic injustices. The program aligns with a mission to foster holistic, trauma-informed, person and community-centered, and culturally responsive services. It emphasizes flexibility and low-barrier innovation to serve those in need of restoration, accountability, and healing, thereby supporting personal and intergenerational healing, burnout prevention, and repairing harm caused by systemic racism, anti-Blackness, and colonialism. The primary beneficiaries of this grant are individuals and communities affected by violence, with a specific focus on Black, Latine, and tribal communities, including urban Indians. The impact goals are centered on violence intervention and prevention, promoting healing, and addressing the long-term consequences of historical injustices. By supporting community healer services, the program seeks to create safer, more resilient communities where individuals can experience restoration and healing from trauma. The program's priorities and focuses include addressing violence that has disproportionately affected Black, Latine, and tribal communities due to the design and enforcement of state and federal criminal laws for drug possession. It prioritizes organizations led by and for these communities, including federally recognized tribal governments, tribal-led 501(c)3s, tribal-led community-based organizations, small businesses, non-profits, faith-based organizations, and grassroots community-led organizations. Geographic priority counties are Clark, King, Pierce, Snohomish, Spokane, and Yakima in Washington State. Expected outcomes include providing culturally responsive services to people of all ages, identities, and abilities, fostering personal and intergenerational healing, and preventing burnout among community healers. Measurable results would likely focus on the reach and effectiveness of the violence intervention and prevention programs, the number of individuals served, and indicators of community restoration and healing. While specific metrics are not detailed in the provided information, the emphasis on accountability and healing suggests an outcomes-based approach. The foundation's strategic priorities and theory of change are rooted in the belief that addressing the historical and ongoing impacts of systemic racism, anti-Blackness, and colonialism through community-led healing initiatives is crucial for violence prevention and community reinvestment. By empowering by-and-for organizations within impacted communities, the program aims to facilitate sustainable change and create environments conducive to healing and well-being. The tiered funding structure, ranging from $50,000 to $500,000, reflects a commitment to supporting organizations of varying sizes, from small-sized with annual budgets under $150,000 to large-sized with budgets over $1 million, ensuring broad access to funding for eligible entities. The project period is set to begin around August 15, 2024, and conclude on June 30, 2025, allowing for a concentrated effort within a one-year grant duration. Eligibility criteria underscore the commitment to community-led initiatives, requiring organizations to be a federally recognized tribal government, tribal-led 501(c)3, tribal-led community-based organization, or licensed to do business in Washington (with an exception for tribes). Additionally, eligible organizations must be registered with the Community Reinvestment Project as a by-and-for organization, ensuring that the healing services are deeply connected to and guided by the communities they serve.
