Grantor: Salem Health & Wellness Foundation
Dates: Opens January 26, 2026 and applications are due by March 15, 2026
Initiated by the Foundation in 2010, the Matching Gift Program has three primary purposes:
- The Matching Gift Program offers flexible funding for general operating support or priority projects that promote the safety, health, and wellbeing of Salem County residents.
- The Matching Gift Program can help organizations build their donor base, and thus support the work related to their health and well-being mission and vision.
- Matching Grants can be used as “match” for other grant awards from government or philanthropic sources. The Foundation recognizes that federal or state match requirements can be a barrier for organizations to apply for such grants and we encourage organizations to consider using this opportunity to support requirements.
Applications will be available on the Foundation’s grant portal and are due by Sunday, March 15, 2026.
We hosted a Q+A Session on Wednesday, January 21st at 9:00 am via Zoom. Please register using the link below. The presentation was recorded and can be viewed here: https://vimeo.com/1156862133?share=copy&fl=sv&fe=ci

Please note – the Matching Gift Program is a competitive grant program and we anticipate many applicants in 2026.

With 31 million children eating school meals every day in the U.S. and millions more in the U.K. and Canada, healthy school food has the power to improve kids’ eating habits and health, and ultimately, change their lives.

Our primary programs like salad bar and school gardens grants and healthy teacher trainings expand access to healthy food choices, connect kids to the root of their food and empower educators. These opportunities are the first steps towards meaningful school food transformations, which will grow a healthier generation.

Grantor: Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
Evidence for Action: Innovative Research to Advance Racial Equity
Evidence for Action (E4A), a national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, funds research that expands the evidence needed to build a Culture of Health, with an explicit emphasis on advancing racial equity. We recognize that achieving racial equity is not possible without a focus on the foundational and structural drivers of health, often referred to as the social determinants of health (e.g., housing, education, built environment, economic opportunity, law enforcement, and others). Therefore, we partner with researchers, practitioners, community leaders, advocates, and policymakers to develop evidence about what works to dismantle or remedy unjust systems and practices and produce more equitable outcomes for people and communities of color.
Evidence for Action prioritizes research to evaluate specific interventions (e.g., policies, programs, practices) that have the potential to counteract the harms of structural and systemic racism and improve health, well-being, and equity outcomes. We are concerned both with the direct impacts of structural racism on the health and well-being of people and communities of color (e.g., Black, Latina/o/x, Indigenous, Asian, Pacific Islander people, and other races and ethnicities)—as well as the ways in which racism intersects with other forms of marginalization, such as having low income, being an immigrant, having a disability, or identifying as LGBTQ+ or a gender minority.
This funding is focused on studies about upstream causes of health inequities, such as the systems, structures, laws, policies, norms, and practices that determine the distribution of resources and opportunities, which in turn influence individuals’ options and behaviors. Research should center on the needs and experiences of communities exhibiting the greatest health burdens and be motivated by real-world priorities. It should be able to inform a specific course of action and/or establish beneficial practices, not stop at characterizing or documenting the extent of a problem.
E4A seeks grantees who are deeply committed to conducting rigorous and equitable research and ensuring that their findings are actionable in the real world. In addition to research funding, RWJF also supports grantees with stakeholder engagement, dissemination of findings, and other activities that can enhance their projects’ potential to “move the needle” on health and racial equity. Only through intentional and collaborative efforts to disrupt racism and translate research to action can we hope to build a more just and equitable society and a Culture of Health.
For additional information, see the program page.
