Carilion Clinic is interested in funding health safety net providers and causes identified through community health needs assessments. While our hospitals are in the process of conducting community health needs assessments in 2012 and 2013, we remain committed to the health of our communities and organizations who share our mission. Below are general guidelines for funding of events and health safety net programs.
Events
Requests for event sponsorship will be reviewed monthly. All requests must be received in writing and include the following:
- Organization name and mailing address
- Tax identification number
- Contact name, phone number and e-mail address
- Details of event or program to be funded
- Amount of request
- Plans for recognizing funding organizations
All requests should be emailed to pnsmith@carilionclinic.org.
Health Safety Net Programs
Requests to fund health safety net programs (physical, mental, dental and medication assistance programs) will be reviewed twice annually. All requests must be received in writing by April 10 for the spring funding cycle or October 10 for fall funding and include the following:
- Organization name and mailing address
- Tax identification number
- Contact name, phone number and e-mail address
- Anticipated impact of funding in addressing a community health need
- Amount of request
- Other participating funding partners
Decisions on funding of health safety net programs will be based on available resources and the impact on addressing a documented community health need. A written agreement and progress report are required. A site visit may also be scheduled based on the level of funding provided.
All requests should be emailed to mariew@carilionclinic.org.
