Rapid Cancer Grants
Fast Funding for Home Cancer Care Research
We fund healthcare researchers to rapidly explore the feasibility of home infusion as a solution to the ongoing challenges of capacity shortage, site of care management, and financial toxicity in cancer care.
Traditional funding pathways for new care models are too slow to impact patients, so we’ve streamlined the process. By providing funding approvals within 14 days, we enable healthcare teams to quickly launch and evaluate home-based cancer care programs that improve access and affordability.
What can a Rapid Cancer Grant be used for?
Projects must comprise of research investigating the feasibility, safety, or economic benefit of cancer care at home and must include delivering care to patients via an IRB approved study. IRB approval may be obtained after grant approval. Projects may include assessing suitability of home infusion, enabling access to lab draws at home, or remote care co-ordination to reduce time toxicity for patients.
If you’re a healthcare worker at an oncology practice, hospital or academic institution in the United States and are interested in continuing or launching a new home cancer care initiative, we invite you to apply for a Rapid Cancer Grant.

Competitive Funds for New Jersey Hospital Based Violence Intervention Program (NJHVIP) - Hudson County
The purpose of the New Jersey Hospital-Based Violence Intervention Program (NJHVIP) is to support programming that connects victims to services beginning in a hospital or other medical setting to services outside of the hospital to increase support for victims of crime, improve their outcomes, and reduce future victimization.
This funding opportunity is focused on the continuity of services to victims and communities in Hudson County, NJ through the New Jersey Hospital Based Violence Intervention Program. Additionally, this NJHVIP program is designed to continue the building of an infrastructure that supports innovative community-based responses to violence and a network of community based public safety interventions.
NJHVIP supports projects that are hospital-based or hospital-linked partnerships between a hospital trauma center, hospital emergency department or a local health department, and one or more community-based organizations that support crime victims outside of the hospital. Examples of those services include high-risk interventions to prevent retaliation, case management, and culturally appropriate services that promote healing. Recognizing that underserved victims are often served exclusively by community-based organizations, this NOAF requires partnerships with at least one community-based direct victim service organization. Partnerships may consist of direct victim services provided within the hospital setting and/or services provided externally in the community.
This solicitation will fund one HVIP program that utilizes evidence-based models, practices, policies, and partnerships that will operate hospital-connected programs that support crime victims and ensure that culturally appropriate victim services are available. Emphasis should be placed on services for victims of community gun violence, stabbings and physical assaults. Applications should represent partnerships; however, one eligible entity must be the subrecipient with primary responsibility for managing the grant and other partners should be proposed as contractors or subrecipients.

Duie Pyle employees to enter into or continue attending an accredited college or technical school. Applicants must be children or stepchildren of A. Duie Pyle employees, should be able to demonstrate academic success, community and/or school contribution and a solid-grasp of future professional plans.
If you are an A. Duie Pyle employee and would like your child to apply for the Latta Scholarship, full details and an application can be accessed here. For any additional questions you can reach out to pylemarketing@aduiepyle.com. or grants@chescocf.org
Background
The Eleanor & James Latta Jr. Scholarship Fund was established through donations from A. Duie Pyle, Inc. and from private donors for the benefit of children of employees of A. Duie Pyle. The fund is administered through the Chester County Community Foundation, and award winners are selected by the fund's scholarship committee, none of whom work at A. Duie Pyle.
Eleanor Pyle was Duie Pyle's daughter, and in 1942 she married James Latta, Jr. At the time, Mr. Latta was serving his country in the U.S. Army. Shortly after the wedding, Mr. Latta shipped out and served in the China-Burma-India Theater, and did not return home until April of 1945. Beginning in 1946, Jim Latta worked alongside Duie Pyle as the company continued to grow.
As Mr. Pyle's health declined in the early 1960's, Mr. Latta assumed the decision making for the future of the company. Mr. Latta led Pyle through rapid expansion, diversification, and a Teamster strike, and Pyle's resulting decertification. Throughout his leadership, Eleanor, his wife of 52 years, was by his side and involved in the company's activities. As Mr. Latta's health problems began to compound during 1985, much of the responsibility for the day to day decision making was transferred to Mr. and Mrs. Latta's three sons: Jimmy, Duie, and Peter. Mr. Latta remained a guiding force for his sons until his passing on June 16, 1995. Mrs. Latta continued as the matriarch of the company for many more years, until her passing on September 29, 2011.
The company experienced tremendous growth and solidified its identity as an outstanding place to work under the leadership of Eleanor and James Latta, Jr. They were always big proponents of education, and this scholarship fund is in memory of their tremendous contribution, and for the benefit of the employees of A. Duie Pyle, who they both so dearly respected and valued.
In 2013, shortly before his retirement, Pyle's President, Steve O'Kane, started the Eleanor & James Latta Jr. Scholarship Fund for the benefit of children of employees of A. Duie Pyle, in memory of Eleanor & James Latta Jr.

Salem Health and Wellness Foundation
The Salem Health and Wellness Foundation was founded in 2002 for the purpose of promoting the health and wellness of Salem County, New Jersey residents. The Foundation has made over $59 million in grants, contributions and scholarships to more than 60 organizations, all with the specific requirement that the funds address health problems in our county.
Grantmaking Overview
The Salem Health and Wellness Foundation is committed to supporting projects that enhance, improve, and transform the health, safety and well-being of the County’s residents. This is done primarily through the Foundation’s grantmaking process that is simultaneously attentive to community strengths and challenges. All grant opportunities are available through public notice through our website and/or announcements by the Foundation’s Executive Director.
The Foundation’s work is guided by its Mission and Values, as well as the Social Determinants of Health and Five Protective Factors. We believe that the “determinants” should be reframed as “drivers” of health, highlighting the Foundation’s desire to build on the strengths and strong traditions of community support from Salem County’s citizen volunteers, non-profit organizations, government offices, faith and business communities and health care providers. Our grantmaking is based on our belief in possibilities.
Salem Health and Wellness Foundation’s grantmaking is also driven by available data and community narratives. This information supports our priority setting and funding decisions. We strongly encourage all grant applicants to use the valuable combination of data, and the accompanying narratives, in shaping their proposals.
Public Health Grants
The Salem Health and Wellness Foundation supports system improvement and transformation projects under the category of Public Health grants. These grants are based on the Social Determinants of Health, taking into account the physical, psychological and social well-being and safety of Salem County residents. The projects tend to be larger in scope and nature and typically address the opportunities available to improve significantly the health, safety and well-being outcomes for the County. For the vast majority of grants, our team will approach an organization directly and invite them to submit a proposal. Infrequently, we may solicit applications for a targeted project through an open call for proposals. Public Health grant proposals must be approved by the foundation’s Board of Directors.
Categories for Public Health Grants include: Care Closet Grants; and Salem Public Health Fellowship
Salem Public Health Fellowship
Introduction
The Salem Health and Wellness Foundation (SHWF) is seeking proposals for an organizationbased, one-year Fellowship. The purpose of the Fellowship is to create systemic change and/or improvement in an area of public safety, health and well-being that impacts the lives of Salem County residents. More specifically, the desired goal of the Fellowship is to alter the trajectory and outcome measurements for a health or well-being issue that has, up to this point, remained stubbornly poor.
The Fellowship, in the amount of $50,000, will be awarded to an organization for a period of one year, with a possibility of a second-year renewal. The Foundation will also provide a 10% administrative cost for the host organization. The organization will be responsible for the recruitment, hiring, training, supervision, and support of the Fellow. In addition, the organization will take a lead role in managing the systems change/improvement project, while working in collaboration with other supportive partners.
The SHWF hopes to identify, and come alongside, a grantee who will plan, define, and implement a fresh, innovative strategy that builds on past practice, current data sources and community narratives and existing promising approaches from around the country. The strategy must have a plan for scaling and sustainability, as well as evaluation. Any health, safety or wellbeing issue will be considered for the Fellowship.
The Fellowship can address any public health, safety or wellness issue in Salem County. The applicants must have a presence in Salem County and must be providing services and/or supports to Salem County citizens. Additionally, the ideal candidate should have the organizational history and capacity to manage complex projects. The Foundation is seeking applicants who will propose a project that goes beyond an individual program and provides a path towards innovation and change for the purpose of improving outcomes in a way that can be sustained and brought to scale. The organization can add to or supplement the amount committed to the Fellowship. However, all the Foundation’s grant dollars must be spent on the Fellowship. There are also funds to support some of the organization’s administrative costs for the effort.
