Deadline to Apply for Second Cycle 2019 Funding is May 14th
The Georgia Healthy Family Alliance (GHFA) is currently seeking applications for the second cycle of the 2019 Community Health Grant Awards program. Grant awards of up to $5,000 are made to GAFP member affiliated community organizations that support GHFA program priorities including underserved populations and community programs that promote healthy practices consistent with the principles of Family Medicine. Current GAFP members including medical students, residents and active/ life members are eligible to apply. The application deadline for second cycle 2019 awards is May 14th. Second cycle grant awards will be announced in June 2019.
Over the last six years, the Community Health Grant Program has given more than $280,000 in grants back to GAFP members, residency programs, FMIG groups and their communities including the Floyd Family Medicine Residency sponsored “Eat, Play, Learn Project” pictured below.
The third and final application deadline for 2019 grants is July 9th. Visit www.georgiahealthyfamilyalliance.org/grants/ to download the 2019 application or view a list of previously funded grant projects.

All donations are tax deductible.
