Foundation for a Healthy St. Petersburg

The Foundation for a Healthy St. Petersburg is a unique, community-focused nonprofit dedicated to advancing health equity and improving the well-being of all residents in South Pinellas County, with a special emphasis on addressing racial and social disparities that impact health outcomes[1][3][5]. Unlike typical health organizations, this foundation stands out for its deep commitment to race equity as the pathway to broader health equity, using data-driven strategies, community partnerships, and grantmaking to tackle the root causes of health challenges—such as poverty, education gaps, and access to services—that are often shaped by historical and structural inequities[1][3][6]. What truly sets it apart is its Center for Health Equity, a hub for learning, dialogue, and collaboration
