Grantmaking
Priorities
Applications for the Fall of 2010 are
due in the foundation’s
offices by 5:00 p.m. on Friday, September 3rd. Successful
applicants will be notified of the foundation’s awards
by October 31, 2010.
Applicants should use the Common
Grant Application, which
is used by almost forty other foundations in the Greater
Philadelphia Area. It is the foundation’s goal to simplify
the application process so that agency staff and volunteers
can spend valuable time providing services and programs.
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
Center, enabling it to better serve the community.
- 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 Brandywine Health Foundation has limited funding
available to reduce the need for emergency medical services,
and/or to strengthen existing emergency services benefiting
the residents of the Greater Coatesville Area.
