The Advancing a Healthier Wisconsin Endowment will fund 66 new projects focused on improving health and advancing health equity in Wisconsin. The projects were selected for grants of up to $50,000 through a competitive application process.
AHW’s seed grants support initiatives designed to lay the groundwork for longer-term efforts to address Wisconsin’s leading health challenges. The funding is for 12-month projects beginning in January 2025. Grant applications received approval by the Medical College of Wisconsin Consortium on Public and Community Health, the AHW Research and Education Advisory Committee, and the MCW Board of Trustees — AHW’s three oversight bodies.
Grant awards totaling $3,879,305 will fuel 21 community-led projects throughout the state, 32 projects led by MCW faculty, and 13 projects shepherded by MCW post-doctoral researchers with faculty supervision.
