The Anna T. Jeanes Foundation, which supports Jeanes Hospital, is continuing more than 20 years of strengthening the community with its 2020 Community Grants program.
Grants are awarded annually to provide funding for projects that promote the health and wellness of communities in the hospital’s service areas. Criteria include a project’s merit, community impact, and the availability of funds. The grants will range from $500 to $2,500 each.
“We are pleased to support local organizations whose work improves the health and well being of our neighbors,” said Elly Reinhardt, chair of the Jeanes Hospital Community Advisory Board. “These grants bring Jeanes Hospital’s commitment outside of our walls and into the communities we serve.”
Applications for the grants are being accepted until November 15, 2019. Funds must be used between January 1, 2020 and December 31, 2020.
Nonprofit organizations are eligible to apply, and must provide a copy of their tax exemption letter from the Internal Revenue Service and a completed W-9 form.
Organizations applying for grants must be located in one of the following zip codes: 19012, 19027, 19111, 19115, 19120, 19149, 19152, 19006, 19046, 19095, 19114, 19116, 19124, 19126, 19135, 19136, and 19154. Projects receiving funding must take place within these zip codes.
