Zero Racial Disparities in Infant Mortality by 2033

Community Mobilization and Innovation Funds 2019-2021

Funding community engagement efforts that promote maternal and infant vitality.

Community Mobilization and Innovation Projects- THIS GRANT POOL IS NOW CLOSED

In nine cycles ending in August 2021, FLOURISH St. Louis funded more than 50 community groups to promote maternal and infant vitality, provide social support and healing to new and expectant mothers, and/or build community among Black parents in priority zip codes where infant mortality is at its worst. Our goal was to get funds in the hands of community leaders doing grassroots, on-the-ground work to support Black moms and babies – many of the awarded applicants were not registered 501c3 or had not previously received grant funding. 

The final cycle of funded partners will be announced in November 2021.
