K21 Health Foundation is a private foundation
that focuses on opportunities to improve health and wellness for the
citizens of Kosciusko County. This focus has its roots from the
origin of the assets of the foundation being from the non-profit
hospital that was established in 1967. The sale of this hospital did
not end the intent of the original donors. This focus is evidenced
in the foundation's mission statement:
K21 Health Foundation exists
for the benefit of Kosciusko County citizens to ensure health care
services are provided, and to advance prevention and healthy
lifestyles.
This will be
accomplished by identifying health needs in our community, and
maintaining an endowment so funding is available, through investments
and grants, for those needs.
Although the foundation considers any
grant opportunities that clearly addresses health and wellness issues
for our community, our priorities for funding consideration focus on
the following:
Non-profit
organizations providing direct health services to people in need.
Funding
organizations that are making advances or providing services in
prevention improvements to minimize the need for health services.
Supporting
those who are developing and implementing solutions toward providing
opportunities to pursue healthy lifestyles and decisions.
A
commitment to regular, consistent assessment and participation in
the discovery of existing health needs of our community.
We are excited about the clear and
critical role K21 Health Foundation can have for our community's future!
