The Amgen Foundation

Description

The Foundation, the philanthropic arm of the pharmaceutical Company, makes grants in three areas: to advance science education; to improve quality of care and access for patients; and to support resources that create sound communities where Company staff live and work. Priority is given to science education grants that address teacher quality and professional development in math and science and those that offer pivotal hands-on science experience. The Quality of Care grants have two priorities: patient empowerment and health care disparities/health inequalities. Preference is given to programs and projects that aim to address the root cause of problems, help make a difference on the widest scale, and have a general benefit beyond a single institution. The Foundation awards grants to regional, national, and European-based nonprofits. Community Life grants are awarded in Ventura and Los Angeles counties, CA; San Francisco Bay area; Counties along the Front Range of Colorado; Middlesex and Suffolk counties, MA; Greater Boston area; Juncos, Puerto Rico; Rhode Island; and King and South Snohomish counties, WA. Additional information can be found on the Web site. Letters of inquiry are accepted year-round.
