Mission
Nova Fund: In January 2023, MeHAF received an unsolicited gift of just over $9 million given by philanthropist MacKenzie Scott. MeHAF's Board approved spending of the funds within 3 - 5 years of receipt. The proceeds of the gift have been named the Nova Fund. In March 2023, a rapid planning process with the Board, Community Advisory Committee, and staff yielded a high-level plan for allocation of the funds to the following categories: Health Justice Movement Building; Health Care Workforce; Fiscal Support Strategies for Small Health-Focused Nonprofits; Crisis Response; Increased Funding for Current/Recent Priorities; Big Ideas. During 2023, beyond grants made to current/recent priorities that are reflected elsewhere in this tax return, a multi-day planning retreat was held to begin planning for Health Justice Movement Building.
