Partner with us to produce thought leadership that moves the needle on behavioral healthcare.
We received your information and will be in contact soon!
We provide funds at below-market interest rates that can be particularly useful to start, grow, or sustain a program, or when results cannot be achieved with grant dollars alone.
We support local small- and mid-size organizations that are working to advance recommendations outlined in the Think Bigger Do Good Policy Series.
Our participatory funds alter traditional grantmaking by shifting power
to impacted communities to direct resources and make funding decisions.
We fund organizations and projects which disrupt our current behavioral health space and create impact at the individual, organizational, and societal levels.

Community organizations that serve the lowest income Philadelphians are invited to apply for a grant opportunity to help families claim the Child Tax Credit and Earned Income Tax Credit.
Community organizations that serve low-income Philadelphians are invited to apply for a grant opportunity to support the Claim Your Money PHL campaign to help families claim the federal Child Tax Credit (CTC) and Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC).
The CTC gives eligible parents or guardians up to $2,000 for each child aged 16 and younger. The maximum EITC refund is $6,557, depending on income and household size. Tax refunds like these are significant poverty fighting tools and put money back in the pockets of low-income Philadelphians to spend on what they need.
That’s why the Scattergood Foundation has teamed up with the City of Philadelphia’s Office of Community Empowerment and Opportunity (CEO) to make grants available to community groups for grassroots activities aimed at reaching the lowest income Philadelphia parents or guardians. Funds can be used to educate residents and help them claim the payments. Applications are due December 1st for work to be conducted from mid-January-June 30, 2023.
Click here to submit an application. Once in the grantmaking system select ‘Claim Your Money PHL Grants’ application to apply.
An optional briefing session will be held for potential applicants on Thursday, November 3rd at 3pm. You must register in advance for this briefing by clicking here. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
