Grant Opportunities

Working together with IE Nonprofits to Advance Vibrant Health

To advance health equity and combat health disparities across San Bernardino and Riverside counties, we aim to build healthy neighborhoods and cultivate healthy living by strengthening the capacity of local community-based organizations that address the social drivers of health.

IEHP Foundation provides funding opportunities throughout the year through two main processes:

1) Requests for Application (RFA) Process

IEHP Foundation will have opportunities to apply for specific capacity-building training programs and funding approximately 2 – 3 times per calendar year. This competitive process is open to any nonprofit organization that meets the specific eligibility criteria outlined in the grant RFA, and each grant program will have specific eligibility criteria. To see currently open RFAs and past grant programs, see below.

2) Invite-Only Process

For responsive grants and sponsorships, IEHP Foundation uses an invite-only process to reduce the burden on applicants and ensure efforts are strongly aligned with our priorities and focus areas. Funding is on an annual basis, will support general operations for a project or program and will typically range from $5,000 – $25,000.  Fundraising events will not be considered.
