The Rippel Foundation Announces Grant Awards to Nine Regional Community Organizations

The Rippel Foundation, a national nonprofit operating foundation focused on health system transformation, is pleased to announce grants to nine organizations working to advance health and well-being in New Jersey and other local communities. Nominated by the Rippel Board and staff members, each organization has received $25,000 in unrestricted funds, which will be used toward general operating and programmatic support.

“As an operating foundation, Rippel is particularly delighted to be able to provide support to organizations that are advancing equitable, sustainable approaches to health and well-being in their communities. These organizations embody the principles and culture of stewardship that Rippel is dedicated to promoting—creating the conditions that all people need to thrive by focusing on vital conditions like access to care, stable housing, food security, a healthy environment, employment, and educational opportunity,” said Laura Landy, president and CEO of The Rippel Foundation. “Rippel has a 70-year history and strong roots in New Jersey, and our work has had a transformative impact on communities throughout the nation. It is gratifying to know that these funds will contribute to the well-being of our neighbors here in our own backyard as well as residents in other deserving local communities.”
