Advance a more equitable, resilient, and healthy community for all residents of the Greater Coatesville area.
The Alliance for Health Equity’s largest recent grant was $710,000 to Ches Penn Health Services for general support, a signal that the funder backs core operations as well as direct services. In the recent grants list, health access, food security, mental health, education, housing stability, and employment development all appear, but the pattern is most visible in awards to organizations serving the Greater Coatesville area. Chester County Oic received $226,600 in 2023 and another $75,000 in 2025, while Two Fish and Five Loaves Community Cafe received $121,271 in 2023 and $52,500 in 2024. Those repeated awards suggest a funder that stays with local partners over time rather than moving on after a single cycle. The Alliance for Health Equity also makes place-based general support grants to public-facing institutions such as the City of Coatesville and the Coatesville Area Public Library, alongside health and human services groups.
In health access and clinical services, The Alliance for Health Equity gave $710,000 to Ches Penn Health Services for general support and $103,700 to the Maternal and Child Health Consortium for Coatesville operations. Food security is another clear thread: Chester County Food Bank received $50,000 in 2025 and $20,000 in 2024, while Two Fish and Five Loaves Community Cafe received $52,500 in 2024 after a larger $121,271 award in 2023. Education and scholarship support also sits inside the portfolio through the AHE General Scholarship Fund and named scholarships for Coatesville Area School District students. Community infrastructure appears through grants to the City of Coatesville, the Coatesville Area Public Library, and Coatesville 2nd Century Alliance.
Typical awards are in the low-to-mid five figures, with a p25 of $11,875, a median of $20,000, and a p75 of $41,250. The recent record also includes several much larger operating grants, indicating a mix of steady support sizes rather than a single fixed award level. Most grants are unrestricted or general support, often for organizations serving Coatesville and Chester County. The grant list shows repeat recipients across multiple years, including Chester County Oic, Two Fish and Five Loaves Community Cafe, Brandywine Valley Active Aging, Community Youth and Women’s Alliance, and the City of Coatesville. The foundation also maintains scholarship and partnership programs, and its network opportunity accepts unsolicited participation.
