Grants

The RMHC Grant Program awards grants to nonprofit, tax-exempt "charitable organizations" with a current 501(c) (3) tax-exempt letter as defined under IRS codes. This program was established in memory of McDonald’s Corporation founder Ray A. Kroc. Through this funding we hope that children will live happier, healthier, more productive lives. The grants awarded are to organizations whose programs help children reach their fullest potential in four distinct areas:

  • Civic and social services
  • Health and fitness education
  • Art and music therapy program
  • Health care and medical research

For information about the grant process, please contact Beth Pfohl, Grants & Scholarships Coordinator, at 319-356-8302 or pfohle@healthcare.uiowa.edu.
