AMA Healthy Living Grant Program
The American Medical Association Encouraging Healthy Lifestyles in Communities Across America
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. Tobacco is the leading cause of preventable death in the U.S. More than 100,000 deaths are caused by excessive alcohol consumption each year. 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.
