Grantmaking

Grantmaking is critical to our mission of promoting the education, health and well-being of Mid-South children.

The Urban Child Institute supports initiatives that focus primarily on prevention and wellness, as well as associated educational and scientific research activities. All grant requests are evaluated on an invitational basis.
