Now Accepting Applications: Third Cohort of Zorya Foundation Full-Year Childcare Grants
The Zorya Foundation is excited to announce that applications are now open for our third cohort of full-year childcare grants! Thanks to the generosity of corporate partners, individual donors, and community supporters during our Summer 2025 fundraiser, we are able to offer six additional grants to women working in healthcare.
What the Grants Provide
Selected grantees will receive $1,000 per month for 12 months in direct childcare support. These full-year grants are designed to ease the financial burden of childcare and help healthcare workers remain in the workforce, caring for their families and their patients.
These awards are in addition to our ongoing one-time $1,000 cash grants. Please note: there are only six full-year grants available at this time, and applying does not guarantee selection.
