Special Opportunities Public Welfare Foundation Deadline: Mar. 29, July 26, 2010
The Public Welfare Foundation is accepting applications for its Special Opportunities Grants program. The Special Opportunities Program supports initiatives reflecting the Foundation's underlying values. At times, this program serves as a laboratory for new ideas that do not fit within the major program areas or that combine objectives of several of the Foundation's programs. Only a few grants are made each year under this program.

KC Healthy Kids members should review the site carefully, as first time grant applicants must submit a letter of inquiry to the foundation. This organization does not accept unsolicited proposals.

Stonyfield KABOOM! Double Play Program Stonyfield Corporation Deadline: TBA Late Spring 2010
Every kid deserves a great place to play. Kids who play are healthier and less likely to be obese. They do better in school. And they learn social skills that help them become happy, well-adjusted adults.
That’s why we’ve teamed up with KaBOOM! (a nonprofit dedicated to bringing play back into the lives of children) to create two new volunteer-built playspaces.

For a chance to win a $50,000 grant for a volunteer-built playground, and the chance to help choose another group to receive the same prize, have your school or youth group collect these specially-marked yogurt lids from Stonyfield Farm 6oz. and 32oz. yogurts. 2009 participation dates will be announced in late spring/early summer. Please visit the website for more info.
