About Tennessee Charitable Care Network
Tennessee Charitable Care Network’s recent grants are built around one repeated purpose: to improve health care services for low-income, underserved Tennesseans through member clinics and safety-net providers. The pattern is visible in large awards to Interfaith Dental Clinic of Nashville, The Free Medical Clinic of Oak Ridge, and Mountain Hope Good Shepherd Clinic Inc in Sevierville, each receiving support across 2024 and 2025. Those grants point to a funder that backs direct service delivery rather than broad, general-purpose philanthropy. Its portfolio also reaches dental care, primary care, and clinic-based outreach, with funding tied to specific service needs inside Tennessee communities. The network’s grantmaking is structured around organizations that serve uninsured adults and other patients who rely on charitable care, and the recurring awards suggest continuing operational support for providers that are part of its member network. Recent grants also include clinics in Knoxville, Bristol, Kingsport, Chattanooga, Memphis, Shelbyville, and Johnson City, showing how the network supports a statewide safety-net infrastructure through targeted awards to local health organizations.
What Tennessee Charitable Care Network Funds
Primary care is a core theme. Tennessee Charitable Care Network gave $443,862 in 2025 to The Free Medical Clinic of Oak Ridge and $250,455 to Healing Hands Health Center in Bristol for health care services for low-income, underserved Tennesseans. Dental access is another clear priority: Interfaith Dental Clinic of Nashville received $665,205 in 2025 for the same service goal. The network also funds clinics serving patients with chronic conditions; it awarded $136,649 in 2025 to Wellness and Stress Clinic of Memphis to improve health care services for low-income, underserved Tennesseans. In addition, its active grant programs include breast and cervical cancer screening outreach, chronic disease support, opioid abatement, and Community Health Worker program development, showing a mix of direct care and clinic capacity support.
How Tennessee Charitable Care Network Gives
Typical awards sit in the mid-five-figure range, with a p25 of $44,069, a median of $65,367, and a p75 of $105,685. The recent grants list shows repeated support to the same organizations in both 2024 and 2025, indicating recurring funding rather than one-time awards. The organization also develops grant opportunities for member organizations and member clinics, and it does not fund individuals. Active opportunities include CHW program development, chronic disease support, breast and cervical cancer screening outreach, and opioid abatement. One of the listed programs accepts unsolicited applications, while the broader member-clinic opportunities are described as member-focused.
