Mini-Grants
The Foundation administers a mini-grant program for activities involving healthcare in the greater Foothills community. Mini-grants up to $1000 are available to qualified organizations pursuant to our policies.
The Enumclaw Regional Healthcare Foundation supports innovative efforts and original projects that offer far-reaching gains and widespread results with explicit, identifiable needs. The Foundation might choose to fund the early stages of a project’s development and/or attempt to leverage additional funds to start or complete a project. The Foundation seeks to respond to a wide variety of healthcare related needs in the community and encourages partnerships and other collaborations.
The Enumclaw Regional Healthcare Foundation distributes grants to organizations whose applications meet the priorities of the Foundation. Grant applications are accepted at any time, but awards will be made on a quarterly basis.
The Foundation requires that a final report on the results of the project be submitted to the Foundation within 60 days of project completion.
Who May Apply

In order to concentrate funds on the types of programs it has identified it is necessary to specify the kinds of projects it does not fund. These include but are not limited to: grants to individuals, support of sectarian religious activities, endowment or debt reduction, fellowships or out-of-area-travel, proprietary enterprises, and political lobbying or legislative activities. A church, or a religious organization, or an organization supported by churches may be eligible for a grant if the program to be funded is a non-religious program that provides only services for the good of the public at large.
