Foundation issues three more RFPs

The Richard King Mellon Foundation has issued three more RFPs – two in our Health & Well-Being program area, and one in our Conservation program area. These three new RFPs are in addition to the five RFPs already pending – another Conservation RFP; three Economic Mobility RFPs; and an RFP jointly issued from our Economic Development and Social-Impact Investment program areas. We are eager to fund thoughtful, visionary responses in these important areas of focus. Applications for all eight RFPs are due September 9, 2022.
