The CVS Caremark Community Grants program provides support to community organizations and public schools in states where CVS stores are located.
The 2009 Community Grants program is focused on several key areas. The program will award funds to nonprofit organizations working to provide disabled children and youth (under age 21) with health and rehabilitation services and/or programs that enable and encourage physical movement and play. The program will also award grants to public schools that promote a greater level of inclusion in student activities and extracurricular programs for children with disabilities. Proposed programs must be fully inclusive where children with disabilities are full participants in an early childhood, adolescent, or teenage programs alongside their typically developing peers.
Additionally, contributions will be made to organizations that provide uninsured individuals with needed care, in particular programs where the care received is of higher quality and delivered by providers who participate in accountable community healthcare programs. There is no age limit on proposed programs that create greater access to health care services.
Qualifying organizations are eligible for grants of up to $5,000 each. .The online grant application process requires that all applicants answer a number of eligibility questions before gaining access to the application.
