Atlas Analysis
DIRECT HEALTHCARE-SCOPE GATE PASS under the broad-program exception only for the authoritative Health & Wellness focus. The Brave Heart Foundation states that it funds Indiana organizations and projects in Health & Wellness and describes that category as projects making a direct impact on community health. Its standard fall cycle accepts requests September 1-30, 2026, with awards up to $5,000. Generic education or grassroots community projects under the same foundation do not independently qualify for Atlas publication. N9+ or clinical-equipment allowability is not established by the standard cycle and must not be inferred.
The Brave Heart Foundation Fall 2026 Grant Cycle is open for requests accepted from September 1 through September 30, 2026. The Foundation lists October 1 for fall funding. Its public guidance does not publish an exact closing clock time or time zone.
The Indianapolis private foundation primarily funds Indiana organizations and projects in Education, Health & Wellness, and Grass Roots Community Action Programs and Service.
Funding: Standard grant awards may range up to $5,000. Requests above $5,000 without prior approval are not considered. Agencies with annual budgets above approximately $1 million to $2 million are not typically funded. Funding is intended for program purposes rather than solicitations or fundraising.
Submission: Grants are submitted through the online application form. Applicants are asked to keep the application to approximately three pages. The reviewed public guidance does not state a mandatory match requirement or publish a fixed complete attachment checklist.
Atlas fit note: Health & Wellness is directly relevant to healthcare projects. Historical Foundation funding for a technology and equipment capacity building project does not establish medical device, telehealth, equipment, vendor, or subcontract cost allowability for this standard open cycle. Confirm any technology component with the Foundation for the specific project before relying on grant funding.
