Grant Award Wednesday - New Grant Awards Announced!
Today the OneOhio Recovery Foundation announced it has awarded more than $2.4 million in grants to 13 organizations across the state to help combat substance misuse by supporting prevention, treatment and recovery efforts across Ohio.
“The people and organizations who are at the tip of the spear against the addiction epidemic in our state are an inspiration,” said OneOhio Board Chair Don Mason. “The grants the Foundation is announcing today will support several of these amazing efforts and we are glad to be able to partner with them to support their missions. We’ve got more work to do but it’s a privilege to support these meaningful efforts to help combat the addiction epidemic across our state.”
New OneOhio Grantees:
These 13 new grant awards are part of more than $51 million allocated for the 2024 Regional Grant Cycle and were selected from 1,442 funding requests totaling $581 million from organizations statewide. Grantees were chosen in a collaborative process that included input from the OneOhio Regions, Expert Panel, Grant Oversight Committee and Board of Directors.
Additionally, the OneOhio Recovery Foundation’s Board of Directors has given preliminary approval for more than 150 additional grant awards. This approval authorizes Foundation staff to negotiate grant agreements with recipient organizations, and awards are publicly announced once grantee organizations complete the grant verification process. Several grant recommendations remain in the review process.
Grant Award Wednesdays will continue, as needed, through the end of 2024 or until all grant awards are announced. A complete list of recipients can be found at OneOhioFoundation.com/GrantAwards.
The 2024 Regional Grant Cycle is just the first of several grant opportunities to come. Organizations and leaders seeking to submit applications in the future can sign-up on the Foundation’s website here to receive updates.
