Vermont Building Communities Grant Program
Funded annually through the Capital Appropriations and State Bonding Act, to qualify for one of the Building Communities Grants, an applicant must be a non-profit organization, regional economic development organization, or municipality.
Human Services and Educational Facilities Grants Program
The Human Services and Educational Facilities Grants Program is administered by the Department of Buildings and General Services (BGS). The goal of the program is to provide competitive grants to Municipalities and to Non-Profit Organizations as defined in chapter 117 of Title 24 for capital costs associated with major maintenance, renovation, or for the development of facilities for the delivery of human services and health care or for the development of educational opportunities in Vermont communities.
This is a competitive grant program and not all grant applicants will receive funding nor will awarded grant applicants necessarily receive the full amount of funds requested. This program provides last gap funding for shovel-ready projects and does not support ongoing fundraising initiatives. It is the intent of the legislature that grant applicants applying for any of the BCG programs shall not apply for more than one grant as defined in Chapter 137 of Title 24 for the same project in the current calendar year, in any of the categories of the BCG programs. This does not prohibit organizations from requesting funding for a different project in an alternate location under any of the BCG programs.
Grants will be awarded by the BCG selection committee on a competitive basis. The BCG committee gives priority consideration to grant applicants demonstrating they have strong community support through the success of local fundraising campaigns.

Blowitz-Ridgeway Foundation
In the 1950s, Chicago attorney Milroy R. Blowitz and his friend, Dr. Steinman, a psychiatrist, had a dream to build a psychiatric hospital for children in Chicago’s inner city. That dream came true when Ridgeway Hospital opened its doors on Ridgeway Avenue in 1962 as a 99-bed, not-for-profit hospital focusing on the psychiatric treatment of children and adolescents.
In 1984, the Ridgeway Hospital was sold and proceeds from that sale were used to establish The Blowitz-Ridgeway Foundation, named to honor Milroy Blowitz, and the hospital he helped start. In the spirit of the Ridgeway Hospital’s original mission, the Foundation’s primary funding goal was to support non-profit agencies that provided medical, psychiatric, and psychological care to economically disadvantaged children and adolescents. The Foundation began awarding grants in 1985.
Our Mission: To significantly improve the lives and well-being of Chicago-area residents who are uninsured, underinsured, or low-income by increasing access to high-quality, comprehensive healthcare and safe, affordable housing.
Blowitz-Ridgeway Health Care Grant
The Blowitz-Ridgeway Foundation’s funding focus is supporting organizations that improve the health of uninsured, underinsured, and low-income metropolitan Chicago residents and their communities. We fund organizations that strive to increase access to community-based preventive and primary health services, such as medical, dental, vision, mental health, and case management.
The Foundation prioritizes small and mid-sized healthcare organizations where we can have the greatest impact.
Oklahoma State Department of Health
The Oklahoma State Department of Health protects and improves public health through its system of local health services and strategies focused on preventing disease. Five major service branches - Community Health, Family Health Services, Prevention and Preparedness, Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion and Protective Health Services - provide technical support and guidance to 68 county health departments as well as guidance and consultation to the two independent city-county health departments in Oklahoma City and Tulsa.
Rural Regional Reorientation (RRR) Program
RRR funding is intended to improve access to critical localized and/or specialized care, quality through meaningful reductions in disease and avoidable hospitalizations, and sustainability through more effective and efficient care in rural Oklahoma. To quickly begin to achieve reorientation objectives, priority will be given to applications that can immediately action on the needs of rural Oklahomans.
RRR will provide grants of up to $4 million to eligible clinical and social service providers, either individually or in partnership with one or more entities.
RRR aims to achieve its goals through an investment in the future of rural health partnerships. OSDH anticipates subsequent years of funding will aim to further these objectives through coordinated and sustained partnerships that require more intensive planning. Participation in year one is not a requirement for participation in years 2-5. More details about years 2-5 RRR funding are expected to be released in the coming months.
Funding can be used for both planning (e.g., technical assistance ahead of implementation) and implementation, though application must explicitly identify any funding intended for planning.
About
Tennessee’s rural communities are the heart of the state’s economy, culture, and identity. The federal Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP) presents Tennessee with a historic opportunity to improve healthcare access, quality, and outcomes in our rural communities for generations to come.
Tennessee’s RHTP plan is foundational building a locally-led model for how rural America can become healthy, vibrant, and self-sustaining, and bring Better Care, Closer to Home.
The Tennessee RHTP Plan proposes investment that reverses rural hospital decline, extends care access, modernizes technology, and strengthens local economies, while improving outcomes for mothers, children, and older adults.
The Tennessee Department of Health (TDH) released the first funding opportunity today of the Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP). This begins a roll-out of competitive grant programs to deliver long-term, sustainable improvements in Tennessee’s rural health systems.

Loudoun Community Response Fund - Phase Two - Community Stability and Assistance Grants 2026
About the Fund
The Loudoun Community Response Fund was launched in 2025 to strengthen our community’s capacity to meet the growing needs of individuals and families striving for financial stability, well-being, safety, and long-term security. As more Loudoun residents seek assistance, the Loudoun Community Response Fund helps ensure that local nonprofits have the resources and support needed to deliver essential services and promote lasting stability. Funding for the Loudoun Community Response Fund is made possible through a one-time investment from the County of Loudoun.
Phase One funding was granted to local nonprofits in December 2025 through the Community Response Grant Round One and Housing Displacement Support Grant programs. The Community Foundation then conducted a community input process in 2026 to assess community needs, especially in the context of federal funding and policy shifts that may impact local residents and service delivery, as well as to inform the funding strategy for Phase Two. The community input process included data and literature review, in addition to focus groups and interviews with nonprofit, government, and funding partners, as well as community members. The Community Foundation now announces the opening of its Phase Two funding opportunities, informed by the community input process findings.
Collaborative Community Solutions Grants: Eligibility and Priorities
The Loudoun Community Response Fund announces the opening of its second phase of community response grants with two grant programs in 2026:
Community Stability and Assistance Grants Priority
The primary area of focus for this grant program is financial stability and emergency financial assistance for Loudoun residents. Proposed projects must address this area of focus to be considered.
