About Florida Medical Clinic Foundation of Caring
The Florida Medical Clinic Foundation of Caring Inc makes general operating grants across a tightly local footprint in Hillsborough and Pasco counties, with most recipients based in Florida. Its recent awards show a consistent pattern of support for organizations serving children, families, and people facing health, housing, food, and safety challenges. Larger grants include $27,600 to Emerald M Therapeutic Riding Center Inc in Brooksville and $25,373 to Sunrise Domestic and Sexual Violence Center in Dade City. The foundation also backed Starting Right Now in Tampa in both 2023 and 2024, giving $25,000 each year, which points to repeated support for the same community organization over time. Other awards reached groups working with pregnancy support, behavioral health, disability services, and family stabilization. Across the grant list, the foundation’s funding style is practical and service-oriented, with many awards labeled general support rather than project-specific funding. That pattern fits its stated focus on measurable, immediate, and ongoing positive changes for individuals, children, and families in need and at risk within its service area.
