Each year, local March of Dimes chapters award grants to external organizations across the state in order to address unmet maternal and infant health needs. These community grants are one way that the March of Dimes pursues its mission of saving babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality.		  
About the Chapter Community Grants Program
The chapter community grants program is designed to invest in priority projects that further the March of Dimes mission, support national and state 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

Projects interventions may be provider and/or consumer focused. Interventions must be provided within the local chapter's specified geographic area.

In order to be eligible to receive a March of Dimes chapter grant, an organization must be an incorporated not-for-profit 501(c)(3) or for profit organization or government agency. The March of Dimes does not award grants to individuals.

See Chapter Community Grants Index below for a listing of currently funded projects in our state.

For more information about the chapter community grant program and how to apply, contact your local March of Dimes chapter office.
