The foundation will consider grants in four priority areas: Educated Kids, Healthy Kids, Secure Families, and Civic Engagement.

third grade.
Healthy kids e.g., healthy birth weight and optimal development: Increase the number of children born at a healthy birth
weight and who receive the care and nutrition they need for optimal
development.
Secure families e.g., children and Families at 200% above poverty: Increase the number of children and families living at least
