What is a Signature Program?
In addition to our grantmaking, the Foundation also supports several Signature Programs, which are direct service programs that address the health and well-being of North Carolinians or build capacity in the nonprofit sector. While Signature Programs are sometimes developed in concert with other nonprofit organizations, the Foundation serves as a driving force behind the creation, development and management of these unique initiatives. The Foundation’s current Signature Programs include: Be Active KidsĀ®, the Breast Health Project, Community TIEs Awards Program, 5 Good Ideas Make them Great and Healthy Community Institute for Nonprofit Excellence.
