Patricia D. Klingenstein Grant Program

The Sadie and Harry Davis Foundation is accepting applications for its annual Patricia D. Klingenstein grant program, dedicated to advancing the health of children in Maine. The program welcomes proposals for a wide range of grant types, including general operating support, program grants, capacity building grants, challenge grants, and matching grants, but typically does not fund capital grants or grants to individuals. Eligible projects and programs must focus on improving children’s health within Maine, prioritizing the state’s most underserved populations, such as those in low-income or rural areas. The foundation particularly seeks proposals from organizations with annual budgets under $5 million and with strong track records of creative and well-grounded approaches. The foundation excludes oral health proposals but encourages connections with the Children’s Oral Health Network of Maine for organizations addressing broader children's health needs. Organizations that have previously received funding must wait two years before reapplying. Grants range from $3,000 to $15,000. Grant renewed every year. Grant annual opeing/closing deadlines: April 15th to May 31th
