Sanofi awards Healthy Futures Solution Fund grants to advance community-led solutions, expand equitable access to care across Massachusetts
- New fund supports nonprofit partners working to address social drivers of health and strengthen community well-being
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., June 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Sanofi today announced it has awarded over $1 million in grants through its inaugural Healthy Futures Solution Fund to support local nonprofits across Massachusetts that are advancing community-led solutions to improve health and well-being in historically undersupported communities. The initiative is part of Sanofi's broader commitment to improve equitable access to healthcare by addressing structural factors, such as lack of access to housing, food, and behavioral health.
Launched earlier this year, the Fund strategically invests in nonprofit partners with deep roots in the communities they serve. Selected from Sanofi's existing network of Massachusetts-based partners, the grantees will use the funding over the next year to scale programs that address root causes of health disparities while delivering measurable impact for historically undersupported populations.
