Growing a great community together.
Every year, Hancock Health sponsors and underwrites numerous community events and local initiatives. We’re proud to support schools, teams, and the good work of other organizations in and around Hancock County.
We’d be happy to consider your request for support, and we do attempt to fulfill as many requests as possible. Please see our guidelines below and let us know how we can help.

Grant Guidelines
Hancock Health invites grant proposals from eligible organizations in the Hancock Health service area. We are looking for community initiatives, programs and activities that are health related.
We are particularly interested in seeking applications that give consideration to the following:
- Commitment to improving community health and well being.
- The potential impact of the request to the Hancock Health service area.
- The number of people who will benefit from the program or service.
- The degree to which the applicant collaborates with or complements the services of other community organizations.
Grants through Hancock Health:
- Support planned programs designed to respond to identified needs in the community.
- May be applied for at anytime, however, grants are reviewed on a scheduled basis (goal is monthly).
- Are expected to be used for specific programs, not for ongoing support or to reimburse expenses already incurred.
- Do not include sponsorships for other organization’s fund raising events.
- Funds must be spent within 12 months of receiving a grant, or the remaining funds should be returned to Hancock Health.
Grants must be received by the 15th of the month to be awarded by the 15th of the following month. Please know that not all amounts requested will be fully funded. For additional information please contact us at 468- 4177.
