Point32Health Foundation is dedicated to proactive grantmaking in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island—the states where it operates. Its team emphasizes listening and learning from the community to inform its efforts, honoring existing relationships, and learning how to best support nonprofit organizations and the communities they serve. This approach aims to address systemic inequities and improve the health and well-being of these communities.
The Point32Health Foundation Grant program is structured around a unique, conversation-first application process, eschewing traditional letters of intent in favor of direct dialogues to foster deeper understanding and stronger relationships. Its funding priorities include initiatives that boost access to affordable, nutritious food, promote good mental health, and advance healthy aging, with a special emphasis on projects that tackle systemic inequities. Starting in 2025, the foundation will particularly focus on Equity in Aging as a primary lens for addressing social determinants of health.
