Hawaii Resilience Fund
The Hawaii Community Foundation provides grants for organizations in Hawaii that are responding to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Foundation is using the CHANGE framework, with a specific focus on the most vulnerable island residents.
Funds will be awarded in the categories:
-
Risk reduction:
- Increase screening and reduce the spread of COVID-19
- Protect front-line healthcare workers
- Respond to an increased demand for food
- Support vulnerable populations with home healthcare visits while sheltering in place
- Relief and response: Supports organizations serving those who are disproportionately impacted by the economic consequences of the virus. Grants will be given to organizations that can assist with rent and utilities, childcare, and other necessities.
- Stabilization: Funding to support interventions and programs designed to strengthen the health of Hawaii's economy and communities
- Resilience: Funding for projects that will engage communities statewide and convene community leaders across sectors to actively seek lessons learned and to refine resilience plans to proactively prepare for future disasters
