Resolve to have a happier, healthier team this year. 
Apply for a grant for your workplace.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Our team at Moses Taylor Foundation was inspired by a recent article in
The Chronicle of Philanthropy that asserted "Doing Good Requires Happier, Healthier Workers."

We know you are often so focused on meeting community needs that you don't have the time or resources to invest in yourself. But the health of the people who serve our community is critical to the health of our community.
 
In the spirit of New Year's resolutions, we challenge you to think creatively about small investments you can make to promote the health and well-being of your team. Fresh fruit on first Fridays? A yoga class? What would inspire your team to consider their own health as they are working to improve the health of our community?
To inspire your thinking, we have resolved to spend our first grant funds in 2017 on healthy workplace resolutions. Any nonprofit organization in our 11-county footprint can submit an idea of how you would use a one-time grant to promote the health of your team. Grants will average $1,000 and be scaled to the size of your team.
