Community Giving
The Community Giving Program offers time-limited grants through announced funding opportunities. Organizations may sign up to receive updates when new opportunities are released.
SCAN Health Plan Community Giving Program
The SCAN Health Plan Community Giving Program supports nonprofit and government organizations that provide direct services to older adults and caregivers within SCAN’s service areas. Through targeted, time‑limited grants, the program invests in initiatives that help older adults remain healthy, independent, and supported in their homes and communities.
Community Giving reflects SCAN’s mission to find innovative ways to enhance older adults’ ability to manage their health and maintain independence.
Important Update: Changes to Community Giving Funding
SCAN Health Plan is transitioning to a new Community Giving funding approach.
Rather than accepting applications on a rolling basis, Community Giving funding will be offered through periodic funding announcements released throughout the year. Each funding announcement will outline specific priorities, eligibility criteria, geographic focus areas, award ranges, and timelines.
At this time, no funding opportunities are open. This webpage is serving as an interim information page while SCAN prepares for upcoming funding announcements and a redesigned Community Giving website launching later this spring.
What to Expect Going Forward
In 2026, SCAN Community Giving will conduct grantmaking through multiple funding cycles aligned with three priority areas:
- Aging in Place Services
- Nutrition Access & Food Security
- Emergency Utility and Rent Assistance
Funding announcements will be released as each cycle opens. Because eligibility requirements and funding parameters may vary by cycle, organizations are encouraged to carefully review each announcement to determine alignment before applying.
Community Giving awards one‑time, time‑limited grants to eligible nonprofit and government organizations delivering direct services to adults age 55 and older and/or their caregivers in SCAN service areas.
