Sarah Ralston Foundation invites applications from organizations serving older adults in Philadelphia County

The Sarah Ralston Foundation supports and enhances the quality of life of vulnerable and underserved older adults residing in Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania.

The foundation invites applications for its Innovative Project Support program, which will award grants of between $25,000 and $125,000 per year for up to three years for projects serving vulnerable and underserved older adults in the county.

Innovative project support is for projects that develop, test, or extend new approaches that improve service delivery to vulnerable and underserved older adults in Philadelphia County. Examples include but are not limited to projects intended to discover new and better ways of solving pervasive problems that impact older adults; seemingly small interventions that, when scaled, can have a significant impact on addressing a big problem; and organizations and projects led by entrepreneurial leadership teams who are skilled at testing new ideas.

Eligible organizations include 501(c)(3) public charities, fiscally sponsored organizations or programs, supporting organizations, and other 501(c) organizations (within legal limits).

For complete program guidelines and application instructions, see the Sarah Ralston Foundation website.

Deadline: September 1, 2025
