CHC's mission to help every person in every community live their longest, healthiest life is driven by collaboration with organizations that are already part of the communities we serve. Our VEI Rapid Response Grants provide funding to organizations in Georgia leading cancer prevention efforts within their communities. These organizations deeply understand the needs & reservations of their communities, and are poised to have the greatest positive impact on them. The second grant application cycle begins on August 1, 2024, and closes on August 15, 2024.
