• Align with the Foundation’s vision, mission, overarching goal, and strategies.
• Impact the health of economically disadvantaged individuals, including those who are uninsured and underinsured.
• Demonstrate collaboration, defined as aligning work among partners.

Unsolicited Grants/Proposals

Capital Project Proposals

Support of projects related to the construction, expansion, renovation of buildings and the acquisition of land. (Please note, capital grants are considered during the third grant cycle of the year, and the ability to support such projects varies by year. Even when capital project requests are strategically aligned, the ability to fund capital requests of this type may be limited by the grants budget and programmatic requests that year.) 

While the capital project application does not require submission of the WHF Program Budget Packet, the application itself requires budgetary information specific to the capital project.
