Opportunity Overview
The Foundation for a Healthy High Point accepts Small Grant applications year round for one-time projects that strengthen health and human service nonprofits and address health and well-being in Greater High Point, North Carolina. The program is designed for smaller, time-limited efforts such as capacity building, technical assistance, training, program development, pilot testing, evaluation, community building, convening and collaborative planning.
Funding and Timing
Applicant value: Small Grants provide one-time awards of up to $10,000. The Foundation states that it expects to dedicate approximately $100,000 annually to the Small Grants program, depending on availability of funds.
Deadline: Applications are accepted year round on a rolling basis. The Foundation generally provides a funding notification within one month of submission. Because this is a genuine rolling opportunity, there is no fixed primary deadline, clock time or time zone.
Eligibility
Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations classified as tax exempt under section 501(c)(3) and public agencies, including state and local governments. New or emerging organizations without their own 501(c)(3) status may apply through an eligible fiscal sponsor. The Foundation does not fund individuals or for-profit organizations.
Eligible health and human service organizations must be located in and primarily serve Greater High Point, be located outside the area but serve a large percentage of Greater High Point residents, or have a stated intent to expand services into Greater High Point. The service area includes High Point, Jamestown, Archdale and Trinity.
Allowable Activities and Restrictions
The program supports nonprofit capacity building, technical assistance and staff training, program development, pilot testing, evaluation, community building, convening and collaborative planning. The Foundation evaluates organizational capacity, project goals and outcomes, impact, collaboration and creativity, budget and sustainability.
The program does not support medical research, transportation services, housing services, direct benefits to individual clients, scholarships, fundraisers, supplanting existing funding, partisan political activity, religious-purpose activities, for-profit organizations or organizations with overdue or incomplete prior grant reporting. The Foundation does not pay a straight percentage of indirect costs; necessary administrative costs may be included as direct line items when appropriate.
Match and Cost Share
Mandatory match: The current Small Grants guidance does not state a mandatory match or cost-share percentage. Applicants should budget only verified project costs and follow the live portal requirements.
Application and Required Materials
Applications must be submitted through the Foundation’s online portal. Hand-delivered, emailed and mailed applications are not accepted. The current public guidance identifies the following required information and supporting documentation: organizational information; project description and implementation plan; project budget using the Foundation’s Application Budget Form; a budget narrative; IRS determination letter; audited financial statements; and a roster of organizational staff and board members.
Atlas Fit Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score: 74/100. This is a continuously open North Carolina health-focused funding source with clear eligibility, a defined local service area, straightforward application mechanics and a rapid decision cycle. The $10,000 award ceiling and narrow focus on smaller capacity, planning and pilot efforts limit project scale.
N9+ Fit Score: 8/100. Atlas does not force a device fit here. The program is primarily designed for nonprofit capacity building, technical assistance, program development, pilot testing and collaborative planning, while its public guidance does not identify clinical equipment acquisition as a priority. A Nonagon N9+ device and platform role would require an unusually specific eligible project and prior confirmation from the Foundation; routine N9+ outreach is not justified.
Dr. Miltie / QC Healthcare Classification
Dr. Miltie and QC Healthcare are not eligible direct applicants because the Foundation excludes for-profit organizations. The low device fit also does not support applicant or partner outreach without a separately verified organization-led project.
