Community Support Grants

As it works to improve health outcomes across Cuyahoga County, MetroHealth is honored to partner with and help support outstanding nonprofit organizations that share that goal.

How to apply for Community Support 

In order to streamline the partnership process, only requests that come through this portal will be considered for support. Please do not approach any Metro Health executive or employee with your request. Use the form below.  

What we look for in a request

Mission Alignment - The mission of the organization requesting support and its proposed use of funds must align with MetroHealth’s mission and values.

Priority Areas - Request should relate to one or more of these priority areas and clearly illustrate how MetroHealth’s investment will help improve health outcomes:

1. Education: Providing services and support to help children thrive educationally.
2. Health: Supporting health care, research and/or healthy life options. 
3. Equity, Inclusion and Diversity: Supporting efforts to overcome systemic inequality. 
4. Community Growth: Providing opportunities for neighborhoods to thrive and offer residents more resources and support.

Robust Partnership - There should be opportunities for a mutually beneficial partnership beyond a once-a-year event. 

Accountability - Organizations awarded a grant must submit a report that outlines how that support positively impacted health outcomes.
