Arthrex is committed to providing the finest quality products and educational services to meet the special needs of orthopedic surgeons and their patients. Arthrex invests in the future education of the orthopedic community by donating to fellowship programs, educational conferences, scientific programs and charitable entities. 

The grant funding process is very competitive. Each grant is evaluated on its individual merit relative to other grant requests. We receive many worthwhile requests. Unfortunately, due to budget limitations, we are unable to fund them all. It is important to note that past funding does not guarantee future approval and that submissions can be approved at an amount less than the requested amount.

Arthrex's Research Support Request

Arthrex is committed to enhancing scientific knowledge by providing funding for research activities that are aligned with our strategic initiatives to help surgeons treat their patients better. Research funding by Arthrex can take the form of monetary and/or product support.

All research requests will be reviewed by the Arthrex Global Grants Committee (GGC), which is a cross-functional committee with the authority to approve, suggest modifications, or decline the research requests. Decisions will be based on objective criteria such as, but not limited to, clinical relevance, scientific impact, methodological approach, proposed budget, study timeline, and overall compliance.

The Arthrex GGC will make every effort to review research request applications within 12 weeks of submission. For all approved research requests, contractual agreement documentation must be completed. Therefore, research requests should be submitted at least 3 months prior to the project start date. Incomplete applications may delay the process. An email notification regarding the decision will be sent after the GGC meeting. The status of each research request application can also be tracked within the research portal.

No direct payments will be issued to individuals. Awarded research requests are provided without any commitment to purchase, use, or recommend Arthrex products either in the past or the future.

Alaska State Libraries, Archives & Museums

The mission of the Division of Libraries, Archives, and Museums is to promote lifelong learning for all Alaskans through Alaska’s diverse history, art, and culture.

Congress passed an act establishing the Alaska Historical Library and Museum for the District of Alaska on June 6, 1900. The purpose of the Museum and Historical Library was to collect, preserve and provide access to objects, laws, and papers from the Territory. The Legislature established the Alaska State Library in 1955 to provide reference library service to Territorial and other public officials and to cooperate with other libraries to increase effectiveness and reduce duplication. The Legislature established the Alaska State Archives in 1970, which opened its doors to the public in 1972. The Sheldon Jackson Museum, founded in 1888 to house an exceptional collection of Alaska Native ethnographic material gathered by Presbyterian missionary Rev. Dr. Sheldon Jackson, was purchased by the State of Alaska in 1985.

Public Library Assistance Grants

Alaska public libraries and combined school public libraries may apply annually for the state-funded non-competitive Public Library Assistance (PLA) Grant. Grant funds, in part, must be used by eligible libraries to purchase library materials and may also be used, in part, to pay staff or cover other daily operating costs of the library.  

Pima County GHovernment

Pima County government can be divided into several general areas of responsibility. Under each area, a group of departments and their divisions provide services to the community. Many of the services the County provides are mandated under state law. Others do not hold legislative mandates but are critical to the effective operation of the County or are important to the health, safety, and quality of life of County residents.

Unlike most Arizona counties, Pima County has a large urban, unincorporated population. Nearly 400,000 residents of unincorporated Pima County live in mostly urban areas of the County, not within any city or town. Because of this, Pima County provides many services that a municipality would typically provide.

Short-Term Crisis & Emergency Resources Grant Program – Round 2

 Program Overview

In response to the ongoing federal government shutdown and its impact on Pima County residents, the County is offering targeted support to eligible nonprofit organizations through the Short-Term Crisis & Emergency Resources Grant Program – Round 2. This initiative provides direct funding to partner agencies to increase food security, stabilize housing, prevent eviction, and address other urgent human needs among individuals and families affected by the crisis.

This emergency program is administered under the framework of the Pima County Outside Agency (OA) Program, which strategically invests County General Fund dollars into nonprofit organizations that deliver essential services.

Illinois Children’s Healthcare Foundation

The Illinois Children’s Healthcare Foundation (ILCHF) has a single vision that: every child in Illinois grows up healthy. Working with grantee partners across the state, ILCHF focuses its grant making on identifying and funding solutions to address the barriers that prevent children from accessing the ongoing healthcare they need, with a primary focus on children’s oral health and mental health.

ILCHF was created in December 2002 through an action of then-Attorney General Jim Ryan and an Illinois insurance carrier. This action and a settlement of approximately $125 million established Illinois’ only statewide private foundation focused solely on the health needs of children. Since inception, ILCHF has awarded approximately $149 million in nearly 900 grants to more than 300 organizations across the state.

“Bright Minds, Bright Smiles”: Mental and Oral Health Integration Initiative

The Illinois Children’s Healthcare Foundation (ILCHF) seeks to provide 20 three-year grants of up to $300,000 each (for a total investment of $6,000,000) to eligible children’s safety-net organizations that are sustaining and enhancing the coordination of existing children’s mental health or oral health services for Illinois children from vulnerable communities.

Examples of eligible projects include, but are not limited to, sustaining direct service provision to children, strengthening care coordination, enhancing referral networks, expanding co-located services in community settings, and building capacity to better serve children enrolled in Medicaid.

ILCHF is proud to support organizations working to strengthen the children’s healthcare safety net across Illinois and ensure that every child in Illinois grows up healthy.

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) is committed to transforming health in our lifetime and to paving the way to a future where health is no longer a privilege, but a right. To achieve that vision, RWJF supports health equity research that “increases opportunities for everyone to live the healthiest life possible, no matter who we are, where we live, or how much money we make.” Achieving health equity requires identifying solutions to the historical and contemporary root causes of inequities.

From Insight to Action: Health Equity Research that Meets This Moment

Purpose

The current challenging political environment underscores the value of timely, credible research that is grounded in real‑world conditions—the type of research that has propelled the progress toward health equity our society has made. That is why RWJF is launching this CFP as part of a new research funding program, Health Equity Research for Action (HERA). HERA will support community-rooted, action-oriented health equity research that reflects lived realities and responds to immediate and long-term needs. The research will help maintain access to evidence, support accountability, and inform efforts to build more equitable systems. HERA is being developed and will be administered by three national coordinating centers (NCCs) based at the Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science, Michigan State University College of Human Medicine, and the Morehouse School of Medicine.

RWJF and the NCCs are interested in research that identifies the root causes of structural discrimination, challenges harmful narratives that undermine individual and community health and wellbeing, and disrupts growing mis- and disinformation. While HERA is still in its early stages, we are hoping this first CFP will sustain and advance health equity research during this critical time, while generating insights that can help shape HERA’s future funding priorities and strategies. Proposals submitted under this first CFP must include research that is conducted in equitable community partnership; focuses on at least one of RWJF’s seven Prioritized Systems; informs systems change; and leads to actionable solutions.

The Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) intends to issue a PCORI Funding Announcement (PFA) on Aug. 4, 2026, seeking to fund studies that build an evidence base on engagement in research, including: 

• Measures or assessment strategies to capture structure or context, process and outcomes of engagement in research.
• Methods that lead to meaningful engagement in research. 
• How effective engagement methods should be modified and resourced for different contexts, settings and communities.  

This preannouncement provides potential applicants additional time to identify collaborators; obtain patient and partner input on potential studies; and develop responsive, high-quality applications.

Applications focused on patient engagement in clinical or self care are not responsive to this PFA. This includes clinical shared decision making interventions, interventions to increase patient engagement with recommended treatments or preventive measures or interventions to increase use of recommended interventions by populations. For example, a study to develop and/or test an intervention to increase patient persistence in the use of guideline-recommended medication is not responsive. This PFA is focused on engagement of partners in research, i.e., the lifecycle of planning, conducting and disseminating research projects. Applications solely focused on interventions to increase recruitment, enrollment and retention in clinical studies are also not responsive.
