Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Local Funding Partnerships - Peaceful Pathways: Reducing Exposure to Violence
The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation is partnering with local grantmakers to offer grants for community based projects to improve the health and health care for vulnerable populations and to reduce violence in traditionally underserved communities.
Up to eight matching grants of between $50,000 and $200,000 each will be awarded. Organizations must be nominated by a diversity focused funder that is principally concerned with the community to be served. Projects should be planned and led by members of the specific racial, gender, tribal or other disadvantaged community to be served, and projects must be culturally appropriate. The grantee is expected to work with the nominating funder and/or additional grantmakers (who need not be diversity-focused funders). Funding partners may include independent and private foundations, family and community foundations, and corporate and other philanthropies. Matching funds must represent new funding specifically designated to support the proposed project. Up to 25 percent of the match for Peaceful Pathways may consist of in-kind services.
Deadline: Rolling
