Greater Worcester Community Foundation is currently accepting grant applications for Fairlawn Foundation. Fairlawn Foundation is dedicated to improving health and health care in the Worcester area through grants to nonprofit organizations in our region. Since its inception, more than $400,000 has been awarded yearly in grants to support capital needs, clinical services, and professional education. In 2013, Fairlawn Foundation aligned its funding guidelines with the Greater Worcester Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) priorities.
The Funds areas of interest are:
- Health care workforce training, especially pilot projects to increase the use of paraprofessionals, case managers, and outreach workers;
- Demonstration projects to expand access to primary care;
- Development of learning facilities, faculty, and scholarships to advance health care professions at all levels.
