Education/Literacy: (1) Grants that encourage educational achievement in areas of documented weakness; (2) Grants that promote advanced learning opportunities to gifted children who would otherwise lack the resources necessary to pursue dreams and talents; (3) Grants that expose children to learning opportunities they would otherwise not experience due to insufficient financial resources; (4) Grants that provide educational programs targeted to low-income children.
Health/Wellness: (1) Grants that emphasize prevention and/or recovery from health problems; (2) Grants that enhance the health of needy children by promoting healthy lifestyles; (3) Grants that provide access to medicine and medical procedures for children who require special assistance and would otherwise be denied such assistance; (4) Grants that strengthen the capacity of operating nonprofit organizations to more effectively meet the needs of low-income children.”
