The Priddy Foundation seeks grant applications to bolster programs in human services, education, the arts, and health, all with a significant focus on fostering individual development and community improvement. This aligns directly with the foundation's mission to create lasting and favorable impact on individuals and organizations. The foundation offers various types of grants, including Program Grants for expanding services, Operating Grants with an emphasis on achieving self-sufficiency, Capital Grants for buildings and equipment, and Organizational Development Support Grants to enhance organizational capacity. The overall goal is to support initiatives that address identified problems and opportunities, and that are sustainable beyond the grant period. Target beneficiaries for these grants span a wide range, as the foundation supports programs in human services, education, arts, and health. This implies a focus on individuals and communities benefiting from improved access to these essential services. The impact goals are centered on individual development and community improvement, aiming for measurable positive change. For instance, program requests are expected to deal effectively with identified problems and opportunities, and organizations should be able to evaluate results against defined standards of measurement. For operating grants, a practicable plan to achieve self-sufficiency is often required, demonstrating a long-term impact objective. The foundation's priorities and focus areas are clearly delineated, encompassing Arts and Culture, Civic/Government, Education, Health, Human Services, Other, and Youth. Within these areas, there's a strong interest in requests that create or expand program services, enhance organizational capacity, and support capital projects that have broad community backing. Geographically, the foundation concentrates on specific counties in Texas (Archer, Baylor, Childress, Clay, Cottle, Foard, Hardeman, Haskell, Jack, King, Knox, Montague, Stonewall, Throckmorton, Wichita, Wilbarger, Wise, and Young) and Oklahoma (Comanche, Cotton, Jackson, Jefferson, Stephens, and Tillman). Expected outcomes and measurable results are integral to the Priddy Foundation's grantmaking. Program grants require organizations to evaluate results against defined standards, and organizational development grants mandate a comprehensive plan with clear linkages between leadership development and the ability to achieve and sustain the organization's mission effectively. For capital grants, organizations must attain their fundraising goal and document sufficient funds to complete the project before funding. This reflects the foundation's strategic priority to invest in initiatives that demonstrate clear objectives, a plan for execution, and a mechanism for accountability and impact measurement. The foundation's theory of change emphasizes empowering organizations to achieve greater effectiveness and self-sufficiency, ultimately leading to enhanced individual and community well-being in its target regions.

The Hospice Foundation of Oklahoma at OCCF grant opportunity, managed by the Oklahoma City Community Foundation, is dedicated to enhancing end-of-life care and promoting awareness of hospice and palliative care options across Oklahoma. This initiative aligns with the foundation's broader mission to support critical community needs, focusing on areas that directly improve the well-being and dignity of individuals during a vulnerable life stage. The grant aims to foster a more informed and supportive environment for patients and their families by addressing gaps in education, awareness, and accessible care models. The primary beneficiaries of this grant are healthcare professionals, patients, families, and the general public throughout Oklahoma. The impact goals are multifaceted: to improve the quality and accessibility of end-of-life care, to increase public understanding of available options such as hospice, palliative care, and advance directives, and to develop innovative social model hospice services. By empowering healthcare providers with specialized training and informing the community, the grant seeks to ensure that individuals can make informed decisions about their end-of-life journey and receive compassionate support. The grant program prioritizes three key areas: Education, Awareness, and Social Model Hospice. Education programs focus on training healthcare professionals in hospice, palliative care, and end-of-life issues. Awareness programs aim to inform patients, families, and the public about their rights, care options, and legal aspects like advance directives. The Social Model Hospice category is designed to establish or expand non-medical hospice facilities and services, offering dedicated home-like environments with round-the-clock individualized care, particularly when dying at home becomes unmanageable. This includes support for facility purchasing, remodeling, furnishing, equipment, and general operating costs. Expected outcomes include a better-educated healthcare workforce, an increase in public knowledge about end-of-life care, and the establishment of new or expanded social model hospice facilities. Measurable results for education and awareness grants, typically ranging from $5,000 to $25,000, could involve tracking the number of professionals trained or the reach of public information campaigns. For social model hospice grants, ranging from $10,000 to $100,000 over two years, outcomes could include the number of new facilities, beds available, or individuals served. The foundation’s strategic priority is to invest in programs that demonstrate a clear theory of change, leading to tangible improvements in end-of-life care infrastructure and community understanding across the state.
