Glendale Memorial Hospital awarded eight local non-profit organizations more than $103,000 in grants through its Community Grants Program at a luncheon on February 22.

The Community Grants Program is sponsored by Glendale Memorial Hospital and its parent company Catholic Healthcare West (CHW). This program is one way in which CHW realizes its mission and enhances the advocacy, social justice and healthier community efforts of its hospitals and religious and community sponsors. Through this program, CHW seeks to partner with other non-profit organizations who are working to improve the health status and quality of life of the communities we serve. The grants will provide services to underserved populations (economically poor; women and children; mentally or physically disabled; or other disenfranchised populations).

To receive a grant, community organizations are invited to submit proposals. Once submissions are received, the Mission Council, chaired by Chaplain Larry Johnson, reviews the submissions and selects the proposals that most closely meet the criteria of the hospital’s Community Needs Assessment.
