Key Information: Projects must address at least one of the program’s three priorities and align with its grant guidelines.
The Hospice Foundation of Oklahoma grant program at the Oklahoma City Community Foundation supports projects that improve end-of-life care for Oklahomans and expand education and awareness of hospice and palliative care options statewide. Its priorities encompass education for health care professionals, public understanding of care options, and social model hospice facilities and services.
The program is supported by a permanently endowed affiliated fund established in 1997 to promote palliative and hospice care in Oklahoma. Recent supported work includes professional continuing education, community conversations about end-of-life planning before a medical crisis, caregiving resources, legal assistance for palliative care patients, and education about advance directives. These projects reflect the program’s focus on both care services and informed decision-making.
