Join the Connect for Health Challenge

It's not too late!  Enter by May 15!

The Connect for Health Challenge's entry period will close on Tuesday, May 15 at 5:00PM.  Don't miss out on this opportunity to be awarded one of up 20 grants of up to $20,000 or one larger grant of up to $100,000 from the Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota Foundation to strengthen social connections in low-income communities across Minnesota.  Begin or finalize your entry today at www.InCommons.org/ConnectforHealth

Keep the questions coming!
We are here to help, and we thank you for your calls and emails. We have received many questions around entering projects for both grant opportunities.  Your organization may enter for both grants but can ultimately only be awarded one grant.  The recipient of the up to $100,000 grant will be determined first. As you prepare your entries, please make sure that the scale and scope of your projects are appropriate for the level of grant you are requesting. Keep asking us your questions at (612) 571-6145 or ConnectforHealth@bluecrossmn.com.

For More Information 
Learn more at www.InCommons.org/ConnectforHealth or contact us directly at ConnectforHealth@bluecrossmn.com or (612) 547-6145. Follow the Connect for Health thread on Twitter at #Connect4Health.
