Individual Health, Fitness, English Second Language Grants

 in response to Schmidty...   

yes, it's clear as mud! lol- i keep plugging away trying - we'll see what happens... I don't have 1800 to start a non-profit- and horrific credit from a bad divorce so loans are out of question that's why i'm going the grants route...

I'll just keep looking to see what I can find.... it's impossible to find money like so many others do and it seems those that do make claims based on those "pay for use" grant finders so I doubt they really received grants!

your help and comments are appreciated... i'm thinking of just going back to school with grants and doing it that way... only thing I can think of to get a job and not do this blood sweat & tears start up stuff... i'm getting too old for all this stress...

What's on your heart and mind today?

where do i locate apply for federal grants to start a non-profit Immigrant/Hispanic Women's Health & Fitness Organization that focuses on nutrition/diet/fitness/healthy cooking to change/help in disease prevention of hypertension, type 2 diabetes, obesity, CAD, and other diseases associated with the diet of a cultural group? I live in South Florida-- the immigrant/hispanic community nutrition & diet is so heart attack/hypertension/diabetes provoking that I truly feel that I have a leg up on getting these grants! I am frustrated at trying to find either Small Business or education start up groups. (i am married into hispanic family so i know the deadly side of the nutrition!)

Where is a good place to help find INDIVIDUAL grants for INDIVIDUALS to start non-profits or to begin community based education that will impact health? I am clueless with the system bc there are so many grants for Institutions.... but finding one for individuals? I'm just lost?!

Individual Health, Fitness, English Second Language Grants

Almost all teh grants I find are for institution based groups-- how do I find INDIVIDUAL grants for a small business/non-profit start up for increasing immigrant/minority English Second Language, health & fitness education? THANKS! Tina

Confused & complicated- TUTORIAL EXIST?

I found quite a few grants I could apply for -- but it's confusing to me bc many list institutions which I am NOT affiliated with-- so should I search for SBA grants instead?

I want to participate in your program....

  • I need to gain access to funds as quickly as possible
  • I want to fund a women's health/fitness education program a
  • I want to teach English as a Second Language program to the large Hispanic women populations stuck at home caring for children to enable them to better economically grow & PARTICIPATE in their child's public education better. 

 

  • Basically, I want to create a resource location/center for Hispanic women of South Florida who have the desire to move forward with
  • learning English
  • new healthful ways of cooking,exercising, and living that still respects cultural norms but offers alternatives to maintain their cultural norms, cooking methodologies and food contents.

Add me to your program and watch my idea grow with real education goals and objectives based on my BA and MA in Education, Certificate in ESL, and personal health educator and fitness trainer!

It's the women like you who sacrifice themselves to care for those around them that receive the least amount of support & care that's needed.

 I am a health educator and trainer- I taught research based (pharmaceutical company funded) doctor's continuing medical education for years...

 have you looked at your local medical universities running CLINICAL TRIALS on IBS where you are compensated money wise to participate to try new treatments and medications for IBS? It just may be a way to take part in a medical study, receive a drug that may help you, and receive compensation for your time & travel & participation in the study. 

Just a thought... it may hook you up with a study that will help treat your IBS and regain your freedom from fear of leaving the house...

also, look at local hospice who offer respite programs to care for family members so you can get time away-- while your mother is not qualified for hospice, they do KNOW where other respite caregiver programs exist for sick families and will offer help to have a caregiver come in as a volunteer and take over some responsibilties for a day or two so you can just have some free time to yourself and RELAX/BREATHE/ENJOY yourself!

Be proud you serve your family- it's as important as serving your country as our military family did!

About tinarivera

I have a Bachelors & Masters in Education/Education Technolgoy. I also have a TEFL (teacher of English as a Foreign Language) Certificate. I am also a personal Health Educator/Fitness personal trainer. I want to teach English as a Second Language (ESL) and provide Health & Fitness education/training to women in childbearing/menopausal years.

My goal is to provide research based access to & the delivery of this research to the underserved immigrant populations in South Florida. There is a HUGE population of Hispanic women who are seemingly 'stuck' in their situations while their husbands go out & work-- they stay at home with many children, have no access to learn English to improve their employability skills, and definitely due to cultural food circumstances live and eat very unhealthy daily diets that contribute to lower life expectancy.

I am looking for grants to support immigrant WOMEN's LANGUAGE (ESL) and HEALTH.

I have started my own personal training /health education company where I hustle out of my car for business to personal train clients but i am vastly underusing my skills and abilities to organize an organization that will serve as a one stop location for the large non-English speaking populations of South Florida that could use better information on how to cook more healthful and gain greater economic and physical/health growth & changes in their lives.

Where do I Start to find BOTH women's health and English as a Second Language funding opportunities?
