Funding
is the special fuel, the key ingredient in starting or
expanding a wellness program.
Plans can be shelved because of budget issues. Funding, wellness
managers tell us, is something they struggle with.
Help For
Non-Profit Wellness
Program
But wellness and health
promotion programs offered by
hospitals, colleges and universities, community-based initiatives and
other non-profit organizations have an option: grants and contracts
from charitable foundations and certain government agencies.
That’s why “Grant
Funding For Wellness and Health
Promotion Programs” has been developed by our
editorial team.
