The Vinton County Community Fund, in partnership with the Foundation for Appalachian Ohio, is accepting grant applications to support projects and programs that benefit Vinton County residents and communities. This initiative aligns with the Foundation for Appalachian Ohio's broader mission to advance opportunities across the region, particularly focusing on local community needs. The fund seeks to foster positive change and development within Vinton County by supporting various community-driven efforts. The grants are specifically targeted towards nonprofits, schools, and public organizations, as well as groups working under fiscal sponsorship. The primary beneficiaries are individuals of all ages residing in Vinton County. The program's impact goals are centered on creating opportunities, meeting pressing needs, and unleashing the potential within the county, aiming for tangible improvements in the quality of life for its residents. The program prioritizes projects and programs that advance opportunities across five key areas, known as the Pillars of Prosperity: arts and culture, community and economic development, education, environmental stewardship, and health and human services. This strategic focus ensures that funding addresses a diverse range of critical needs and supports holistic community development. Emphasis is placed on initiatives that are spearheaded by individuals committed to making a difference in their community. While specific measurable results are not explicitly detailed, the expected outcomes are implicitly tied to the advancement of opportunities within the five pillars. Projects are expected to demonstrate potential impact, with funding requests between $500 and $2,500 generally preferred, though larger requests may be considered based on the scale of their potential influence. This framework reflects the Foundation's theory of change, which posits that investing in these key areas, through local initiatives, will lead to sustainable community growth and improved well-being for Vinton County residents.

This program will constitute a national CBA Provider Network (CPN) to deliver CBA services to an interdisciplinary HIV prevention workforce (e.g., professional, technical, clinical, and managerial staff) within CDC-funded state and local health departments and CBOs. In the United States, an estimated 1.2 million people are living with HIV. In recent years, the number of people with HIV (PWH) has increased while deaths have declined. Of PWH, about 87% were aware of their HIV status. In 2021, among people with diagnosed HIV, an estimated 75% received HIV medical care and 66% were virally suppressed. Promising progress has been made in HIV prevention as the estimated annual new HIV infections were 12% lower in 2021 (32,100 infections) compared to 2017 (36,500 infections). This decline was largely driven by a substantial decrease (34%) in new infections among 13- to 24-year-olds, mostly among gay and bisexual males. However, HIV prevention efforts must go further, and progress must be faster, for gains to equitably reach all populations and end the HIV epidemic. The National HIV/AIDS Strategy (NHAS) for the United States focuses on four goals: preventing new HIV infections, improving HIV-related health outcomes of people with HIV, reducing HIV-related disparities and health inequities, and achieving integrated, coordinated efforts that address the HIV epidemic among all partners. Successful HIV programs must recognize the syndemics that affect the people and places disproportionately affected by HIV. A syndemic is population-level clustering of social and health problems. In the context of HIV, a syndemic is when HIV clusters with one or more other diseases or health conditions within a specific population, driven by the contextual, structural and social factors that increase the adverse effects on the health of people and communities. Syndemics may include HIV, STIs, TB, viral hepatitis, overdose, and substance use, and other existing and emerging conditions or factors that may be related to or impact HIV. The Ending the HIV Epidemic in the US (EHE) initiative focuses on scaling up four sciencebased strategies in communities most affected by HIV across the country. The strategies are to diagnose all people with HIV as early as possible; treat people with HIV rapidly and effectively to result in sustained viral suppression; prevent new HIV transmissions by using proven interventions, including condom distribution, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), postexposure prophylaxis (PEP), and syringe services programs (SSP); and respond quickly to potential HIV outbreaks to get vital prevention and treatment services to people who need them. Toward achieving national HIV prevention goals, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) funds state and local health departments and community-based organizations (CBOs) to plan, integrate, implement, evaluate, and sustain HIV prevention and surveillance programs, prioritizing people disproportionately affected by HIV including gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men, in particular Black, Latino, and American Indian/Alaska Native men, Black women, transgender women, youth aged 13-24, and people who inject drugs. Racism, HIV stigma, discrimination, homophobia, poverty, and barriers to health care continue to drive disparities in HIV prevention. Building individual competencies and technical expertise among staff, strengthening organizational capacities, and enabling supportive structural environments are critical strategies Page 5 of 81 in addressing operational challenges for more effective HIV prevention and surveillance programs. Reflecting CDC’s continued investment in improving the performance of the nation’s HIV workforce, this NOFO will support the provision of capacity building assistance (CBA) services, including training and technical assistance (TA).

This grant from Sanofi's Rare Blood Disorders Medical Affairs department focuses on medical education programs addressing Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP).

Proposals should address existing healthcare gaps in the treatment and management of ITP, improving clinician knowledge and patient outcomes. The maximum grant request is $150,000, with a focus on comprehensive interventions that address knowledge and performance gaps in ITP treatment. Proposals should cover target audience generation, learning objectives, educational methods, faculty recruitment, program evaluation, and budget planning.

The Community Reinvestment Fund is a capital grant program established by the Delaware General Assembly, designed to foster community redevelopment, revitalization, and investment capital projects. Its overarching mission is to improve the economic, cultural, historical, and recreational health of Delaware communities. This program aligns with a strategic priority to enhance local well-being and stimulate growth across various sectors within the state. The target beneficiaries of this grant program include county and local governments, community-based nonprofit organizations, and private sector nonprofit organizations that hold a 501(c)3 designation at the time of application. The program specifically excludes state agencies, school districts, charter schools, private schools, institutions of higher education, childcare facilities, churches, fire companies, fiscal agents, and for-profit organizations. The impact goals are broad, aiming for a holistic improvement in community health. The program prioritizes projects that involve preconstruction costs, land acquisition, building construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation, or restoration. It also supports the acquisition or installation of apparatus or equipment permanently attached to buildings, and the acquisition and improvement of land for project sites. Furthermore, the construction of sidewalks, sewers, or water mains connecting to public systems are eligible. These priorities demonstrate a focus on tangible, capital-intensive projects that build or restore essential community infrastructure. The expected outcomes and measurable results include the successful completion of capital projects that contribute to the economic, cultural, historical, and recreational health of Delaware communities. While specific metrics are not detailed, the emphasis on "redevelopment," "revitalization," and "investment" suggests a theory of change where targeted capital injections lead to observable improvements in community assets and overall quality of life. The program implicitly aims for a ripple effect, where improved infrastructure and facilities foster greater community engagement, economic activity, and cultural preservation.
