2026 Better Together Community Benefit Grant
Request for Proposals
Assessment Criteria The assessment criteria for Renown Health’ s Better Together Community Benefit Grants are designed to ensure that funded projects align with community health priorities and have a measurable impact. To ensure fairness and objectivity, applications for related initiatives will be reviewed blindly by a committee of healthcare professionals.
Applications will be evaluated based on the following:
• Alignment with Priorities: How well the project addresses one or more focus areas identified in the Community Health Needs Assessment( e. g., access to care, mental health, social determinants of health, preventive care).
• Connection to Priority Populations: The extent to which the project targets underserved or vulnerable populations.
• Project Scope and Feasibility: The clarity and feasibility of the project’ s goals, timeline, and budget.
• Impact and Measurability: The potential for measurable outcomes and the ability to demonstrate sustainable community benefits.
• Collaboration and Partnerships: Evidence of partnerships with other organizations or stakeholders to enhance the project’ s reach and impact.
• Innovation and Sustainability: The project’ s ability to introduce innovative solutions or ensure sustainability beyond the grant period.
These criteria help prioritize projects that can make the greatest difference in improving the health and wellbeing of the community.
