Greater Cincinnati Foundation recently completed it Healthy People: Community & Cultural Vibrancy grant cycle, investing in 28 programs that are meant to strenghten physical and mental well-being, expand access to services and build healthier, more stable futures for individuals. This is part of a strategic plan to invest $1 billion into the region over the next decade.
The funding comes through a partnership between Greater Cincinnati Foundation and the Carol Ann and Ralph V. Haile, Jr. Foundation, which are backing a mix of projects focused on economic stability and quality of life.
The funding supports a variety of initiatives, from arts and cultural programs to community spaces and inclusive youth activities, with grants ranging from $5,000 to $25,000.
These grants align with ArtsWave’s strategic vision of making Greater Cincinnati a more “vibrant and connected community through the arts,” according to CEO Alecia Kintner.
