This report seeks to answer the questions:
-How can grantmakers in health have the most success in improving health outcomes?
-Who are the grantmakers that are successfully addressing health outcomes and health policy, and how is this being done?
Author Terri Langston and NCRP recommend two strategies for health funders to improve significantly the impact of their philanthropy: allocating at least 50 percent of their grant dollars to benefit underserved communities and 25 towards advocacy, community organizing and civic engagement that promotes long-term systemic reform.
