- Grants that provide educational programs targeted to low-income children
Health / Wellness
- Grants that emphasize prevention and/or recovery from health problems
- Grants that enhance the health of needy children by promoting healthy lifestyles
- Grants that provide access to medicine and medical procedures for children who require special assistance and would otherwise be denied such assistance
- Grants that strengthen the capacity of operating nonprofit organizations to more effectively meet the needs of low-income children.”
