Grants considered in this limited, fast-track pool are generally awarded as one-time support and not considered for renewal. They should address urgent circumstances and/or be time sensitive, or fund limited-time initiatives. Proposals that request HFNJ support for projects larger in scope may be declined or referred to the regular granting process.

• Details: HFNJ has long supported organizations making capital requests to fund the construction or renovation of clinical spaces; the purchase of equipment such as MRI machines or surgical equipment; and other such capital requests. Because these projects often do no fit into the one-year timeframe of our regular grants – with the benefits to the community in particular spread out across many years if not decades – we have recently instituted a new application form just for capital requests.

• Details: The Foundation will accept a limited number of grant requests to fund projects that take place over multiple years (up to three). Grants can be in any program area and must outline why a multi-year request will be helpful for project implementation, and should demonstrated realistic, clear goals with articulated short- and longer-term goals that can be accomplished with a 2-3 year timetable. To be eligible to submit a multi-year request, organizations must have a history of successful grant projects with The Healthcare Foundation of New Jersey and must have prior approval from the Executive Director/CEO. Organizations that would like to be considered for a multi-year grant should contact our office at (973) 921-1210 to arrange a time to speak with our Executive Director/CEO about this opportunity.
