Description
The OAHSTRIDES Fund, the philanthropic arm of Orthopedic Associates of Hartford, PC, provides grants to organizations serving under-resourced populations in the Greater Hartford Community. The 2026 funding cycle focuses on supporting veterans through programs that improve physical, emotional, and mental health, with an emphasis on movement, mobility, and community reintegration. Funded initiatives should empower veterans, foster resilience, restore confidence and connection, and promote lifelong well-being, particularly through adaptive sports, wellness programs, and activities that address both visible and invisible impacts of military service.
