About the Williamsburg Health Foundation
The Williamsburg Health Foundation (WHF) is an independent private foundation dedicated to improving the health and well-being of those who live in Greater Williamsburg.
The Foundation is focused on strengthening the healthcare safety-net for uninsured and underinsured individuals and supports programs and activities that target behavioral and social risk factors that influence health throughout the life span.
WHF awards grants to nonprofit organizations as well as local and state government agencies that serve residents in our service area of the City of Williamsburg, James City County, and York County.
Grantmaking
With the goal of enhancing health in Greater Williamsburg, WHF is interested in evidence-based, promising, or previously successful approaches, and new ideas. WHF welcomes proposals from eligible entities that prioritize positive outcomes for populations with low incomes and target one or more of these underlying factors affecting lifelong health and well-being:
- Access to care: Availability, affordability, and quality of health-related services.
- Economic Advancement: Financial literacy and capability to access essential resources.
- Healthy Living: A way of living that lowers the risk of being seriously ill.
Grant Priorities
As the Foundation’s funds are finite and the good work of nonprofit organizations and others is limitless, we have established the funding priorities outlined in the grantmaking guidelines. Priority consideration is given to proposals which:
- 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
The Foundation accepts unsolicited proposals through three grant cycles annually.
Applying for an Unsolicited Grant requires the submission of WHF’s online grant application. WHF has two separate Unsolicited Grant applications: 1) project/program proposals and 2) capital project proposals.
Both applications require organizations to identify the need, target population, strategy for addressing the need, and alignment of the proposed request with WHF’s strategic plan and funding strategies.
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.
