Montana Healthcare Foundation’s CFP offers Montana-based organizations a chance to apply for funding to design and pilot innovative, Montanagrown solutions to key health challenges. The applications they receive help us understand the evolving needs and priorities in communities around the state.
To be considered for funding, applicant organizations must meet their eligibility criteria, and project proposals must address each of their selection criteria, which applicants should read in-depth before applying. The strongest applications will demonstrate the importance of the health issue being addressed, the effectiveness of the program you seek to design or implement, strong partnerships with organizations that can contribute to success, and sustainability beyond the grant term.

Eligibility Criteria
The Foundation only fund Montana-based organizations. Montana-based organizations that are eligible to apply for funding under this call for proposals include:
