The Community Grants Program
|
| The Massachusetts Chapter community grants program is designed to invest in priority projects that further the March of Dimes mission, support national campaign objectives, and further our strategic goal of reducing disparities in birth outcomes. Proposals will be accepted from organizations with the capacity, competence and experience to accomplish project goals and objectives through one of the following strategies:
Increasing Access to and Quality of Health Care for Women and Infants
Increasing Availability of Prevention Services
Increasing Availability of Genetics Services and Folic Acid Education
The applicant must provide services in Massachusetts. The chapter community grants fund for 2009 is approximately $75,000. It is anticipated that 3-5 projects will be funded, with awards ranging from $10,000 to $25,000 each. Chapter community grants are approved for one year.
The first step in the application process is to submit a Letter of Intent.
