Washington County Public Health Sponsorship Application

Thank you for requesting sponsorship funds from Washington County Public Health (WCPH). These funds are available to support activities that promote health equity, diversity, and inclusion in our communities. Applications are reviewed and approved on a quarterly basis and the funds may be gone before the end of the fiscal year (June 30). We encourage organizations to apply as soon as they know details about their event and sponsorship proposal.


Organizations that are approved for sponsorship can be awarded up to $1000 for events and conferences. Sponsorship funds are prioritized for events and organizations that serve diverse communities including underserved racial and ethnic communities, people of color, immigrants and refugees, people with disabilities, and LGBTQ communities. Priority is given to events that are created by and for communities impacted by health inequities in Washington County.


Please submit your application as soon as possible, to ensure that we can review in time for your event. We will email you to confirm we have received your application.

Does the event provide information, resources, or services directly to community members?*
Does the event include a focus on health literacy, health promotion, or community resilience?*

Personal health literacy is the degree to which individuals have the ability to find, understand, and use information and services to inform health-related decisions and actions for themselves and others. (National Institute of Health)


Health promotion is the process of empowering people to increase control over their health and its determinants through health literacy efforts and multisectoral action to increase healthy behaviors. (World Health Organization)


Community resilience is the sustained ability of communities to withstand, adapt to, and recover from adversity. Health—meaning physical, behavioral, social, and environmental health and wellbeing—is a big part of overall resilience. (ASPR, Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Resilience)
