We often like to console each other by saying “At least you have your health”. But for many people in many communities across the nation and beyond, this isn’t the case. Health and wellness challenges are a serious issue that requires serious solutions - solutions that many nonprofits are working to deliver.

These nonprofits are only able to do their essential work through the generous donations provided by health and wellness grants. These grants can be put towards a wide range of projects, including the establishment of community wellness centers, health and mental health counseling, and educational outreach about healthy choices for nutrition, fitness and lifestyle.

Sources of these grants are varied. Traditionally, federal entities often provided these kinds of grants - organizations such as the CDC or the HRSA. There are also many private foundations operational in this space, such as the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

When preparing a health and wellness grant proposal, it's essential that you use data to illustrate the gap in care that your nonprofit is hoping to address. This date could include statistics on particular chronic conditions (such as depression or obesity), or on the lack of access to healthcare services in a community. You can start to find this information from sources like the CDC mentioned above, or from local health department records.
