A $1.34 million grant to Good Samaritan Health Services Inc set the tone for St John Medical Center Inc’s 2024 giving: large, health-focused awards aimed at underserved people in Tulsa. The foundation’s recent grants also show a strong link between health access and basic needs, with support for the Crossover Community Center Capital Campaign and the FreshRx Food is Medicine Program, plus funding for Medicaid outreach, enrollment, and a food incentive program at Oasis Fresh Market. Its portfolio reaches beyond clinic care into housing, homelessness services, and neighborhood-based stabilization, including work in North Tulsa and other under-invested areas. Another sizeable grant went to Growing Together Inc for acquisition, development, and staffing tied to families in vulnerable neighborhoods. The foundation also supported children at risk, breast health care, mental health services, HIV/AIDS social services, senior care, and mobile testing, indicating a grantmaking pattern built around health care access and the conditions that affect health outcomes. The grants are concentrated in Tulsa and nearby Oklahoma communities, with occasional awards outside the state.
In health access, St John Medical Center Inc backed several organizations that connect uninsured and Medicaid-eligible people to care. Community Health Connection Inc received $100,000 for affordable care, enrollment help, blood glucose control, and colorectal screening, while Health Outreach Prevention Education Inc got $76,274 for a mobile testing program. The foundation also supported mobile healthcare through Health Outreach Prevention Education and medical-worker training through Met Cares Foundation Inc’s LevelUp Tulsa project. Food-as-medicine appears in multiple awards: Crossover Community Impact Inc received $1,075,000 for the FreshRx Food is Medicine Program, and Hunger Free Oklahoma Inc received $400,000 to expand Double Up Bucks at grocery stores in the Tulsa area. Housing and neighborhood stability are another strand, including $700,000 to Tulsa Habitat for Humanity Inc for the North Tulsa Initiative and $500,000 to Affordable Housing Property Solutions Inc for the Envision Comanche project.
Typical grants are moderate to large: the p25 is $37,500, the median is $75,000, and the p75 is $161,000. The recent list also shows repeated support to the same organizations across 2023 and 2024, including Good Samaritan Health Services Inc, Tulsa Habitat for Humanity Inc, Tulsa Community Foundation, University of OK Foundation, Crossover Community Impact Inc, and Oklahoma Project Woman Inc. That pattern points to recurring support rather than one-time awards only. St John Medical Center Inc is a private foundation, and it does not fund individuals. Grants are made as philanthropy rather than program-related investments.
