If you are part of an organization that is searching for funding for health-related projects and programs, Triangle North Healthcare Foundation may have the opportunity you are seeking.
The Foundation’s 2017 Grant Cycle opened Monday, April 3. The first step in the grant application process is the Letter of Interest, which is due May 15th. The Letter of Interest form is available on the online Grant Portal, which can be accessed via the Foundation’s website www.tnhfoundation.org
In order to be considered for a TNHF grant, you must represent a nonprofit organization, school, or governmental agency that serves the Triangle North region— Warren, Vance, Granville, and/or Franklin counties. Your project should fall into one of these five funding priorities: Chronic Disease, Mental Health & Substance Abuse, Nutrition & Physical Fitness, Success in School as related to Health & Fitness, and finally, Reproductive Health.

The mission of the Foundation is “to encourage, support, and invest in quality efforts that measurably improve health in the Triangle North region.” The Foundation cannot accomplish this alone. “Through our partnerships with community organizations, formed through grantmaking, this Foundation can make a difference in the health status of our communities,” said Mrs. Short. “Please let us hear from you!” she added.
