The Fund for a Healthy Rhode Island, “a catalyst for change,” focuses on primary care.

“The INE allows us to deliberately, thoughtfully, and intentionally complement our ongoing grantmaking, and to find out what’s working so we can do more of it,” says David Hirsch, chairman.

To honor George Graboy’s lasting contributions to the Foundation, the board of directors established an unrestricted fund in his name.

Each of the 1,140 permanent endowments at the Foundation has a story behind it, a purpose before it. Read the stories behind funds established in 2008.

The Foundation has made a significant ongoing investment in the URI/Central Falls partnership.

The Black Philanthropy Initiative and Equity Action, two special campaigns at the Foundation, focus on social justice and equity for all Rhode Islanders.
