The Grant Process
As a not-for-profit hospital, Reid is committed to giving back to the communities we serve. The community benefit grant process is a means for Reid to establish community partners in other organizations who are working toward common goals for the betterment of society.
Grant applications will be accepted from organizations which are qualified 501(c)(3) organizations and other organizations recognized by the IRS as those to which gifts are tax deductible. No grants are awarded to organizations that discriminate as to race, gender, sexual preference, age, disability, creed, or ethnic group.
To be eligible for a community benefit grant, a program or service must meet an identified community need and at least one of the following community benefit objectives:
- Improve access to health services
- Enhance public health
- Advance general knowledge
- Relieve the burden of government to improve health
Additional Information
Organizations may be awarded in two of three grant cycles if they are for different programs. $10,000 request limit per grant application.
Applicants may be required to demonstrate other funding sources to support the program, in addition to the support provided by Reid.
Awardees of community benefit grants will be required to submit an annual report for the twelve-month period following the receipt of their grant award. Failure of the organization to complete or submit reports may result in denial of future grant applications.
Consideration will not be given to grants which solely support funding of:
- Construction and/or renovation
- Land or property acquisition
- Sports teams
- Projects or programs completed prior to the end of the grant cycle in which the grant was applied for
- Indirect operating expenses
- Endowments
- Events
- Capital campaigns
It is recommended that no more than 50% of your request be for staff or personnel. If your request exceeds this amount we will require additional information on your application.
Grant requests must be submitted via the Online Application Form. The Community Benefit Well-Being Committee will make the final decision. All applicants will be notified of their decision by mail.
