Description
The Michigan Health Endowment Fund’s Attend/Present Scholarship supports professional conference attendance for organizations that would otherwise lack the means to participate. It welcomes applicants who will use conference participation to build networks, inform their thinking, shape projects, raise professional awareness, and set the stage for future work. Participation should also help build the field in ways related to the Health Fund’s mission.
The scholarship is part of the Health Fund’s Capacity Building Initiative, which provides funding, tools, and training to strengthen Michigan’s health-focused nonprofits. The broader initiative helps organizations build on their strengths and advance their missions to improve health for people and communities across Michigan.
