Grantmakers In Health Announces Phase II of Affordable Care Act State Grant Writing Assistance Fund
Deadline: Rolling

With support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Grantmakers In Health is making available grant-writing support to help states implement the Affordable Care Act.

The GIH State Grant Writing Assistance Fund will provide grants of up to $30,000 for a period of up to six months to foundations that are interested in offering grant-writing support to state and county government agencies. This Phase II RFP features a revised matching rate of 2:1 (the fund will match two dollars for every dollar requested).

Eligible organizations include all state and local foundations able to meet the matching requirement. (GIH considers “foundations” to be organizations whose primary function and activity is charitable grantmaking to multiple individuals or organizations.) Previous GIH State Grant Writing Assistance Fund awardees are eligible to reapply.

Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis until the fund is depleted.

Visit the GIH Web site for complete program guidelines, eligibility information, and application procedures.
