Community Funded Grant Program

As a public hospital district, EvergreenHealth provides a special benefit to the greater community. Every year, we are entrusted stewards of the community's resources. In 2021, more than $5.8 million in levy funds supported a range of programs designed to provide quality health care, services and resources—often at no charge—to meet the community's health needs.

We continue to partner with those who share our mission and values to bring real and lasting improvements to our communities. The EvergreenHealth Community Funded Grant Program is just one way in which we can work collaboratively to improve the health and well-being of the communities we serve, by investing in organizations and internal programs that align with our mission and vision. Awards are determined annually, and awardees must re-apply for future funding. Funding was awarded for calendar year 2023. The Program is paused for 2024. Please check back here for information on if the program will be offered again in 2025.
