PROFILE: W.K. Kellogg Foundation awards grants to organizations working many angles in healthcare. These areas include, but are not limited to, the promotion of breastfeeding, the reduction of infant mortality in traditionally underserved communities, the promotion and provision of oral health care for vulnerable children, and addressing health disparities in low-income neighborhoods.
Kellogg does not have a program dedicated to health and policy access. Grantseekers should plan on exploring the foundation's existing programs to determine where their work best fits within the foundation's grantmaking.
Kellogg’s public health related grants are awarded through its Healthy Kids, Secure Families, Community & Civic Engagement, and Racial Equity programs. Regardless of the specific grantmaking program, all of Kellogg’s public health-related grants have one main concern: the health and well-being of young children. As the foundation states, 'We intentionally place vulnerable children and their families at the center of everything we do and we want the organizations and policies we support to surround them with integrated programs that address the comprehensive needs of children, their families and communities.'
Kellogg's grantmaking priority areas include Mississippi, Michigan, Mexico, New Orleans, New Mexico and Haiti. Grants range from $2,000 to upwards of $4 million—certainly a large spread, but averaging out the number of grants within the total grant amount, we find that the average grant is around $500,000. Which is a pretty good sum.
