BCBSTX Community Health Event Sponsorships — 2026

What the funder says

Event sponsorships of $250–$5,000 for organizations improving community health and wellness and directly benefiting Texas residents. Examples explicitly include community health fairs, drives, walks and runs. Applications January 10–December 1, 2026; requests must arrive at least 60 days before the event. This is sponsorship support, not an unrestricted operating grant or the separate Blue Impact grant program. Funding is not guaranteed.

Eligibility

Only requests directly benefiting Texas residents are considered. Source states: "Sponsorships do not require 501(c)(3) status." Organizations working to improve community health and wellness may request sponsorship support. The funder says an organization may receive a grant or a sponsorship, but not both; the restriction period is not stated. Review the full source exclusions and nondiscrimination policy; individual requests and school athletic programs are excluded. This listing does not establish eligibility for any specific applicant.

Submit through the official Event Sponsorship Application linked from the source: https://www.cybergrants.com/hcsc/eventquiz.
