These include applications for grants to support "safety net clinics" that provide medical services to vulnerable populations in underserved areas of the community, grants to nursing schools to fund student scholarships, and "innovation grants" supporting innovative projects and initiatives that seek to advance the practice and delivery of healthcare.

Where this information comes from

Every fact on this page is published from the foundation’s own IRS Form 990-PF for the tax period ending 2023-12-31 (EIN 364685801). Part XV of that form is where a private foundation that accepts unsolicited applications must tell the IRS — and the public — who to send applications to, what to include, any deadlines, and any restrictions on awards. Most of these programs are never listed on scholarship search sites; the filing is often the only public record they exist.

Most listings on this site are compiled from the foundation’s own IRS Form 990-PF filing — the public record where foundations that accept applications must state who to contact, how to apply, any deadlines, and any restrictions. Listings under /award/ are a second, separate source: read directly from the foundation’s own public scholarship portal, with a link to that source on every page. Filings are annual and portals change between cycles, so details can change: always confirm the current deadline and requirements with the foundation before applying. This site is not affiliated with, authorized by, or endorsed by any foundation listed. Scholarship information here is free; we charge only for optional application coaching, and we never write your application for you.
