How to Apply Grant applications are submitted via MeHAF's on-line grants management system, which can be accessed via the Grants Center on the MeHAF website: http://www.mehaf.org/grants-center/grantseekers. Questions regarding grant submission can be directed to Holly Irish, the Grants Manager. Questions about specific funding opportunities are typically directed to individual program staff supervising the grant program. The responsible staff person is listed in each request for proposals (RFP) which are posted on the MeHAF website (www.mehaf.org).
Restrictions The Foundation generally limits its grant awards offered through competitive RFPs to 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charitable organizations, educational institutions, governmental entities, tribal organizations, or other public, non-profit entities. Private foundations, fiscal sponsorships and organizations with pending non-profit status are occasionally eligible to receive funding; such entities must contact the foundation prior to application to ensure appropriate due diligence. MeHAF primarily funds Maine-based organizations; however, qualified organizations from outside the state may apply for funding if the project activities focus on Maine's health care system or Maine residents. Individuals are ineligible to receive MeHAF grants.
