GRANTS
GRANTMAKING FOCUS
The Sarah Ralston Foundation seeks to fund organizations serving vulnerable and underserved older adults residing in Philadelphia County. Organizations may be based outside of Philadelphia County.
GRANTMAKING APPROACH
The Sarah Ralston Foundation seeks transformative impact on the lives of vulnerable and underserved older adults. It does so by providing general operating support and innovative project support.
- Older Adults typically refers to those who are 60 and older.
- Vulnerable refers to a disproportionate risk of an undesirable quality of life.
- Underserved refers to insufficient access to quality services.
