Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Oracle Health Foundation is building healthier tomorrows around the world through pediatric grants, school-based wellness programs, and care kits for children in need.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Care Kits
The Care Kits program provides much needed personal items to children facing difficult circumstances, like entering the foster care program, or students at our Healthe Kids Screenings schools. Individuals or groups donate supplies and assemble these bags for Oracle Health Foundation to distribute across the US.
Healthe Kids Screenings
Healthe Kids Screenings offers free preventive wellness screenings for elementary school children in the greater Kansas City area. If a child is identified with a medical referral during the screening, Oracle Health Foundation is committed to closing the gap by connecting the child to care and providing financial assistance, when needed.
Healthe Foundations
Healthe Foundations is an online, project-based high school health curriculum, offered free of charge to schools in 27 states.
Healthe Perceptions
Healthe Perceptions is a comprehensive middle school social-emotional wellness program. It focuses on prevention and education, screening, and connection to care for mental health issues facing middle school students.
