Baxter International Foundation


Baxter International Foundation, established by the Baxter International Inc., works towards making healthcare accessible and affordable worldwide. It provides grants to NGOs to undertake programs that help communities to have quality healthcare in an affordable manner. 

Grants are made in different countries of the world, but NGOs need to make sure that Baxter International Inc. has an office in their own country. The Foundation covers areas of dental, mental health, substance abuse and health services to those suffering from disability, domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse. Some of the previous international grants made by the Foundation include projects on increasing nursing services to provide skin and wound care to high risk individuals in Northwest Puerto Rico and expanding medical program to the disabled children in China. It also offers prizes to recognized community services through its Foster G. McGaw Prize. 

NGOs can apply for grants at the Foundation after going through the grantmaking application procedures. In most cases, the Foundation extends grants to those NGOs recommended by the local facility of the Baxter International Inc. Proposals are accepted round the year, but there are submission deadlines for each quarter and NGOs can submit proposals accordingly. 

Proposals have to be submitted according to the guidelines given on the website. The Foundation prefers to receive proposals by mail. The mailing address is given below. For application procedures, visit the link here.
