Grantmaking
We fund organizations and projects which disrupt our current behavioral health space and create impact at the individual, organizational, and societal levels.
Participatory Funds
Our participatory funds alter traditional grantmaking by shifting power
to impacted communities to direct resources and make funding decisions.
Special Grant Programs
We build public and private partnerships to administer grant dollars toward targeted programs.
Program Related Investments
We provide funds at below-market interest rates that can be particularly useful to start, grow, or sustain a program, or when results cannot be achieved with grant dollars alone.

The Community Fund for Immigrant Wellness uses a participatory grantmaking model to support programs and organizations that work with immigrants and refugees to improve emotional wellbeing and quality of life. In 2020, the Community Fund funded three programs across the City of Philadelphia:
- Chinese Immigrant Family Wellness Program (a partnership of Hall Mercer and Philadelphia Chinatown Development Corporation)
- Intercultural Wellness Program (a partnership of AFAHO and Welcoming Center for New Pennsylvanians)
- Tabadul: Reflecting on Our Experiences Through the Arts (a partnership of Al-Bustan Seeds of Culture and Northeast High School)
Each of these programs have held therapeutic spaces for communities to find meaning in identity, create meaningful social connections, and build confidence and leadership skills – all while navigating the challenges of COVID-19. As a cohort, they have collaborated with and supported each other to enhance all of their programs. Join this event to learn about and celebrate their work on January 26, 2021.
