Funding for the Future
We're on the lookout for new ideas and innovative thinking. We want to partner with organizations that approach health issues from a new perspective, but always keep the well-being of Missourians at the heart of their work. Join us in our cause!
Open Funding Opportunities
Assessment of Missouri’s Behavioral Health System (Request for Contracted Service Proposals)
MFH seeks proposals from qualified persons and/or firms to create a point-in-time assessment of Missouri’s behavioral health system showing how its many components connect and interact.
Opportunity Fund
We believe that the best strategies to address community health issues often come directly from our communities. Through our Opportunity Fund we’re offering the chance for visionary thinkers to tell us their best ideas with the hope of making them a reality. We aim to foster generative conversations — encouraging community members to share their hopes for a healthier region, while providing guidance and making connections that can help bring their ideas to life.
The Opportunity Fund has a rolling deadline, with applications read as they are received.
Important Note on General Support for Advocacy (GSA) Grants in 2017-2018
Started in 2004, the GSA program has provided flexible funding to strengthen health advocacy organizations and ensure grantees are able to respond to health policy issues in a timely and systemic way. Currently, the MFH Board of Directors, Community Advisory Council, and staff are reviewing the Foundation’s approach and strategies to support health advocacy and policy in Missouri.
