Con Alma Health Foundation releases 2011 Grant Guidelines

Con Alma Health Foundation is accepting proposals for its 2011 Small Grant Cycle.

The Foundation’s Small Grant Cycle awards grants of up to $15,000 each to nonprofit organizations serving residents of New Mexico. Priority consideration is given to proposals that demonstrate strong collaborative relationships, and address systemic change rather than direct services. Applications are due Wednesday, June 1st.

Grant investments will address key findings and recommendations made in the Foundation’s report, “Closing the Health Disparity Gap in New Mexico: A Roadmap for Grantmaking,” which is based on statistics provided by New Mexico government agencies and nonprofit organizations.

“We recognize that evidence is needed to help guide our grant making and galvanize targeted action and strategies to address priority health issues in New Mexico,” said Dolores E. Roybal, Executive Director.

A free pre-proposal tutorial is available online at www.conalma.org.
