Grantmaking Priorities

The Brandywine Health Foundation’s principal and overriding goal is to support and strengthen the system of safety net health providers for low income residents in the Greater Coatesville Area, with special emphasis on reducing racial and ethnic healthcare disparities.

To that end, proposals for funding in the following areas will receive priority consideration:

  • General operating support, special program support, occasional capital needs, or technical assistance for the existing network of safety net providers serving the uninsured and underinsured with medical, dental, and mental health services.
  • Programs to enhance the effectiveness of the Brandywine Health & Housing Center, enabling it to better serve the community (scheduled to open in April, 2008.)
  • Efforts to provide information and outreach to the uninsured to promote their enrollment in AdultBasic, CHIP, PACE, and pharmaceutical companies’ prescription assistance programs.
  • Programs to positively impact the delivery of mental health services for low income residents, particularly adolescents and teens.
  • Advocacy efforts with elected and appointed government officials for systems changes designed to increase insurance coverage through existing or new government funded programs, and to promote overall public health.
  • Giving priority to funding those programs that include interpretation services for the Latino population.

The foundation may provide limited funding to meet the following areas of need:

  • Programs to help children in the local community who have few opportunities to succeed in life, emphasizing community-wide, systemic solutions and initiatives.
  • Programs to address the problem of obesity, particularly among youth.
  • Programs to encourage health literacy.

The Brandywine Health Foundation has limited funding available to reduce the need for emergency medical services, and/or to strengthen existing services benefiting the residents of the Greater Coatesville Area.
