If you've got a "healthy" idea, there just may be funding available to take it to the next level.
Health promotion grant applications are being accepted until October 15, 2010. Grants of up to $2,000 per project are offered annually through the Sunrise Health Region. The grants support non-profit agencies and community groups with projects that promote healthy living and wellbeing, or prevent illness and injury to residents in the health region.
"Applicants are asked to explain how their project will address Healthy Living in their community which is part of Sunrise's Population Health Promotion Plan," details Jim Wallace, Director of Public Health.
Full details and application forms are available on the Sunrise Health Region website home page at www.sunrisehealthregion.sk.ca under the "Connect to a Healthy Choice" menu. Information and applications can also be accessed by calling the Public Health Office in Yorkton 786-0600.
