Wellness Grant FAQs

How many grants are selected every year?

Grant award decisions depend on the quality of applications, the total number of applications received, and the resources available. Grant submissions go through a review process and only some applications are selected. There is no set number of grants selected each year. 

Why didn't my team's application receive a grant award?

Grant award decisions depend on the quality of applications, the total number of applications received, and the resources available. We focus on awarding grant projects with buy-in from colleagues and support from department leadership, with a high probability of being sustained, regardless of future funding. Read more about wellness grant application requirements or check out the sample application to ensure your application meets the criteria.

Are teams allowed to re-submit applications?

Yes, we encourage teams to re-submit a proposal not previously selected. Before doing so, please consult the BeWell Champions team at bewellchampions@stanford.edu if you have any specific questions about why your application was not previously selected

My team was previously awarded grants. Can we apply for a new grant?

Yes! However, the grant program aims to increase the scope of grants awarded. Therefore, priority will be given to teams that have not had a grant awarded within the past 12 months.
