Afterschool.gov
The Opportunity of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) for Afterschool Program
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009 offers several opportunities for afterschool providers to support their programs in a time of economic crisis. The six funding sources highlighted in this document were selected based on their applicability to afterschool programs and their relevance to funding a variety of out-of-school time services. Since the ARRA presents a one-time opportunity for resources, information for on-going funding to support afterschool programs can be found in the "How to Get Money" Federal Funding Database on the Afterschool.gov website

AMA Foundation and AMA Alliance: Healthy Living Grant Program
Obesity kills more Americans every year than AIDS, all cancers and all accidents combined. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention state that a third of Americans are obese, causing significant health and financial consequences to our nation. A recent White House study found a 400% jump in prescription drug abuse between 1998 and 2008. From infants to the elderly, violence affects the health of people in all stages of life.
The AMA Foundation, with support from the AMA Alliance, began the Healthy Living Grant Program to address these critical issues. Based on the thought that local leaders can come up with the best solutions to these problems, this initiative supports grassroots organizations who are on the front lines in their communities. These grants provide critical funding that can jumpstart a project, affect change quickly, increase visibility for a project/organization, encourage collaboration and make a lasting difference in a community.
