Welcome to the website of the Michael Reese Health Trust.  Our Chicago-based foundation is committed to improving the health of the region’s most vulnerable residents: the poor, children and youth, people with disabilities, the elderly, immigrants and refugees, and the uninsured. Our grants and initiatives support the work of organizations serving these populations, as well as efforts to achieve lasting change in the region’s health care delivery systems. On this site you’ll find information about the Health Trust, our grantees and some of their work, and of course our grantmaking guidelines and application process.  We invite you to explore these pages and return when you’d like updates on our work.
