Description
The Community Wellness Grant Cycle, administered by Community Foundation Serving Western Virginia, supports programs addressing basic human needs among vulnerable populations. Its focus is on reducing barriers to food, safe and affordable housing, clothing, and other necessities so that individuals, families, and communities can thrive.
Supported work includes food assistance for people facing food insecurity, increasing affordable housing options for low-wealth households, preventing homelessness, providing temporary shelter, and helping people transition to stable housing. Programs supplying clothing and other essentials are also a priority. The Foundation seeks well-planned responses to community needs, demonstrated support, and committed leadership, with particular emphasis on collaboration among organizations with similar missions.
