Major Grants
In 2010, Allegany Franciscan Ministries will provide one- to two-year grants to support organizations whose missions are aligned with our focus of improving the overall health status of individuals and creating healthy communities through increasing access to health services and information. Organizations with programs and initiatives that utilize community and neighborhood assets to address health needs of underserved and economically poor populations are encouraged to submit funding requests to support general operating and program costs that are necessary for the organization to carry out its mission and have an impact on those in need.    

The deadline to submit a pre-application has passed.
