Funding opportunities

At Health Forward, we support our partners through open and invitation-based funding opportunities, while also supporting emerging opportunities.

Platform funding opportunities

How healthy we are is strongly influenced by our society’s systems, policies, and stories.

  • We are pleased to announce an open funding opportunity for organizations working to uplift community through storytelling. 
  • This funding will support efforts that share asset-based narratives — stories that highlight the strengths, talents, and resources within communities — to reshape harmful narratives that contribute to racial, economic, and health inequities. 
  • To support this work, we will award a total of $1 million in funding, across multiple organizations, for a 12-month period.
  • We will begin to accept applications on Sept. 3.
