Grant Funding Recipients 2022-23
The Advocates Department Grant Funding Program has awarded grants for our fiscal year June 1, 2022 through May 31, 2023. All proposals align with Advocates for Upstate's mission to 1) improve patient care and satisfaction, 2) support medical education and/or 3) enhance community health.
Applications for grants are accepted from departments across the Upstate Medical University campuses and must be for items and/or services NOT funded through department budgets. More information for our 2023-24 Grant Program will be posted in early 2023. For questions contact Jonathan Adler via email or by calling 315-464-5610.
