The 279 organizations in the top tier of scores received $2 million each and the 82 organizations in the next tier received $1 million each. This cohort of 361 outstanding teams from 38 states, Washington, D. C.
, and Puerto Rico will enable individuals and families to achieve substantive improvement in their well-being through foundational resources. These community-led, community-focused organizations work in urban and rural settings, with individuals of all ages, focusing on a wide range of issues.
