Health and Wellness
At the Community Foundation of Greater Greensboro, we recognize that health and wellness is a foundational component of any thriving community.

Our region’s vibrant culture is built upon inclusive community dialogue and civic engagement in its various forms. The Community Foundation of Greater Greensboro is particularly interested in funding organizations which bolster cultural vibrancy through:
- Increasing access to and appreciation for the arts, cultural opportunities, and natural assets such as parks, especially for students and residents at or below the federal poverty line in Guilford County
