Funding Limit: $25,000 MAXIMUM

OBJECTIVES: Grants are provided for educational, health, and human services programs, especially in support of initiatives that address literacy, healthcare for the uninsured, nutrition, pre- and post-natal care, childhood immunizations, poverty, language barriers and cultural adjustment. Internationally, the sponsor has funded housing and medical assistance programs that help thousands of individuals who previously had little or no hope for decent shelter or medical
attention. Providing emergency assistance during times of natural and man-made disaster is also a cornerstone of the sponsor’s outreach to those most in need both in the United States and abroad. (dss)
