Funding-Grants to Fund Relevant Nutritional Research; December 31, 2009

The Allen Foundation awards grants to projects that primarily benefit programs for human nutrition in the areas of health, education, training, and research. Priority areas include:

· programs for the education and training of mothers during pregnancy and after the birth of their children, so that good nutritional habits can be formed at an early age

· training of persons to work as educators and demonstrators of good nutritional practices

· projects which disseminate information regarding healthful nutritional practices and habits

The connections between diet and health remain a basic and primary priority, and consideration has always been given to projects that benefit nutritional programs in the areas of education, training, and research. Research projects that are pre-clinical or translational in nature, i.e., utilizing animal models, as well as human/clinical studies are eligible for consideration.
