Tau Grants
One-year grants focused on small and mid-sized nonprofits (<$2M) with organizational or program needs that are limited in scope. FY19 Tau Grants will support capacity-building efforts for organizations, programs or initiatives that are aligned with our mission and impact at least one of the social determinants of health. The first cycle addressed social determinants: education, economic stability and/or health & healthcare. The second cycle will address social & community context, neighborhood & built environment, and health & healthcare. Tau Grants are intended to support services that assist persons who are marginalized, economically poor, or have limited access to healthcare and health information. There are two grant cycles per year. Requests up to $10,000 will be considered. Read Tau Grant Overview document.
