2024 Impact Story - Health Foundations Grantmaking Impact

Health Foundations Leverage Collaboration to Build Change in the Valley

Warren Farmers Market 2024

When two long-established health foundations joined forces with the Community Foundation, it marked the beginning of a new era of collaboration, expanding our ability to improve health outcomes and meet the evolving needs of local residents.

The two health foundations – Western Reserve Health Foundation serving Mahoning County and Trumbull Memorial Health Foundation doing the same in Trumbull County – came to the Community Foundation in 2012, following the bankruptcy of Forum Health three years earlier. As part of the health system’s sale to a for-profit entity, the charitable funds were spun off to continue operation.

It was in their role as supporting organizations of CFMV that they came together to establish a new method of grantmaking for their organizations: setting priorities based on the community health improvement plans that are created by the two county health departments.

2024 Grant Investments

The Community Foundation supports public charities that carry out activities to benefit Mahoning and Trumbull Counties. Grants are categorized by their purpose: Education, Health and Human Services, Arts and Culture, Community Well-Being and Other.

2024 Impact Story - Healthy Community Partnership

Healthy Community Partnership Highlights Expansion, Momentum in Annual Report

hcp crop1

Now in its eighth year, the Healthy Community Partnership has grown to include more than 60 individual members representing just as many organizations across its three action teams – Active Transportation, Healthy Food, and Parks & Greenspaces. To supplement the vital work done by action team members and turn their insight and ideas into real-world change, HCP has grown to include three support staff: Sophia Buggs, the Mahoning Valley Food Access Director; Dalton Campana, the Community Recreation Graduate Assistant; and Lydia Lynch, the Trumbull Health & Wellness Coordinator.

The trio’s work is in addition to that of Robin Perry, who joined as the Partnership’s Network Coordinator full time in 2022, and founding director Sarah Lowry, who was promoted to be CFMV’s Senior Director of Community Impact in fall 2023.

“The work those action teams do is done not just by one organization who takes part in HCP, but by a whole committee who is there to aid that support position,” Perry says. “That lets the action teams do a lot more hands-on work. That’s the part of the Partnership that we want to foster with our shared power model. That’s what makes the Healthy Community Partnership unique, I think.”
