As the year draws to a close, The Health Trust is once again investing in local non-profit organizations working on improving health outcomes for those most vulnerable and living in the Silicon Valley.
As part of its FY 26 Cycle 2 grants, The Health Trust is partnering with organizations serving youth and adults experiencing food insecurity, programs rooted in culturally responsive healthcare, and those working alongside foster youth in our community.
“We are so proud to partner with organizations who are working on a daily basis to improve the health and wellbeing of our neighbors,” said Dr. Anthony Iton, CEO, The Health Trust. “With a federal administration that is targeting the most vulnerable in our communities, it is vital for The Health Trust to stand in unity with all of our communities.”
Below are those organizations receiving grants during this funding cycle:
Food and Nutrition Focus Area:
South County Community Services: Strengthening the Community Food Program to ensure families and community members experiencing food insecurity have reliable access to nutritious, balanced foods.
Youth Alliance: Creating a youth-led kitchen and food pantry that promotes health, career exploration, community connection, and promoting self-determination in the local food system.
