Mini-Grant Program – General
The foundation provides mini-grants to support small-scale programming and events, which align with the interests of the Foundation. These interests include healthy eating, active living, teen pregnancy prevention, risk behavior in teens and reducing childhood obesity. Examples of some of the activities we will consider are health fairs, adult/children running programs, health educational events, etc.
Mini-Grant Program – School Breakfast
The foundation provides mini-grants to support schools in promoting its School Breakfast program to support classroom breakfast initiatives in Salem County area schools. Research shows that offering school breakfast improves attendance rates and on-time arrival, test scores and classroom behavior. In addition to improving academic performance, there is evidence that school breakfast programs have the potential to reduce rates of childhood obesity, one of the Foundation’s central goals.
Discretionary Funding Areas
The foundation continues to fund in the areas of access to healthcare, preventative care and career opportunities in healthcare.
