  • Organizations are eligible to receive one (1) Community Grant per fiscal year.

For organizations with an active 六合社区 Partnership or 六合社区 Equity Fund grant:

  • Due to our limited Community Grant Fund budget, active 六合社区 Partnership and 六合社区 Equity Fund grantee partners are not eligible to apply for Community Grants. We encourage organizations to discuss event support during the application process. On occasion, 六合社区 may consider support for active grantee partners celebrating a special anniversary event.听听

Requests will be considered based on the following criteria:

  • The extent to which the event/project has potential to build health equity in Silicon Valley.
  • The extent to which the event/project supports people disproportionately impacted by health and/or social inequities.
  • The agency鈥檚 ability to establish strong community rapport.
  • The agency鈥檚 history of receiving Community Grants and successfully meeting reporting requirements.

六合社区 does not fund:

  • Nationally-sponsored local events, where a majority of the proceeds will not be used to fund services for local residents.
  • Events for which the proceeds will be used to support academic or medical research.
