Information for Grantseekers
The Foundation is no longer accepting unsolicited proposals for the Children and Teens grant making program. The Children and Teens program has been redesigned with a focus on childhood immunizations. The Foundation will be making larger, multi-year grants to a smaller number of community partners specializing in childhood immunization. Funding opportunities will be identified by the Foundation in collaboration with Group Health medical staff and our partners in the community.
