Grant Description
Grants of up to $15,000 to California nonprofit organizations, public schools, government agencies, and tribal governments in eligible locations for community-based healthcare services. Funding is intended to address the health needs of area residents with an emphasis on underserved populations. Eligible applicants serve the residents of Humboldt County.

The Humboldt Health Foundation Community Health Grant supports programs and projects that enhance the physical and mental well-being of Humboldt County residents, improve the health of those who have experienced social or economic disadvantages, create or support access and/or service delivery for under-served and marginalized populations, and/or have a lasting impact or plan for sustainability after HHF grant funding is expended. 

The Foundation recognizes that racism is a critical public health issue impacting the region. Therefore, HHF will prioritize funding for organizations and groups that support the health and well-being of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color. 

The Community Health Grant supports programs, projects and services that accomplish one or more of the following:

  • Improve the health and well-being of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color and those experiencing systemic barriers to health and wellness in Humboldt County. The Foundation is particularly seeking proposals from organizations serving these communities and addressing these issues:
    • Black, Indigenous and Communities of Color
    • LGBTQI+
    • Eastern Humboldt
    • Eel River Valley
    • Veterans
    • Mental and Behavioral Health
    • Substance Use Disorders
  • Have potential to make significant community impact
  • Are preventive or ‘upstream’
  • Bring people together to work on issues of community concern
  • Connected to communities served

HHF makes grants for general operating support, programs, services, advocacy, organizing, civic engagement, capital campaigns, capital improvement projects, and racial equity training and consulting.
