Open year round. The Joanne Owen Foundation accepts grant applications on a rolling basis from qualifying Nevada public charities. The Foundation’s published vision includes community education, health, wellness, and other charitable needs across Nevada.
Funding: the Foundation says it is open to grants in any amount, with a typical grant size of $5,000 to $50,000. It will not make an award where the grant could potentially exceed 66% of the recipient organization’s total support for that year. No mandatory match or cost share is stated in the public guidance.
Eligibility: applicants must be registered 501(c)(3) public charities in good standing, operate within Nevada, and demonstrate measurable impact and sustainable benefits aligned with the Foundation’s vision. Universities, religious organizations, and individuals are not eligible.
Supported requests: project or program grants, operating support, capital and/or seed grants, emergency or crisis grants, planning grants, and collaborative or partnership grants.
Deadline and review: there is no traditional application deadline. Applications may be submitted at any time. The Foundation states applicants can expect a reply within two weeks after application, while final decisions for major grants are typically communicated in June. Small or time sensitive grants may be issued at any time during the year.
Submission: applications are submitted through the Foundation’s online grant application form. The public FAQ does not publish a separate required attachment checklist. Initial screening addresses completeness, mission alignment, and eligibility, followed by evaluation of impact potential and program sustainability.
Contact: grant inquiries may be directed to grants@jo-foundation.org.
N9+ Fit: 76/100, conditional. Health and wellness are explicit mission areas and capital grants are eligible, so a Nevada public charity could potentially seek support for an organization led access to care project that includes the Nonagon N9+ device and platform. The public guidance does not specifically identify medical devices, telehealth, remote monitoring, or vendor services as priority uses, so Atlas should not force fit.
Atlas Opportunity Score: 84/100. This is a useful rolling Nevada opportunity because of broad grant types, flexible award sizing, and explicit support for health and wellness. Dr. Miltie/QC Healthcare is not an eligible direct applicant under the verified public charity requirement. Any vendor or partnership role remains conditional on the applicant’s approved project and the Foundation’s determination.
