We Are Committed to Providing Responsive Support During the COVID-19 Pandemic

In the first stage of our response, GRoW has committed to support health care organizations that work tirelessly to provide high-quality patient care and support for its front-line workers, including Martin Luther King, Jr. Community Hospital, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, and Clínica Monseñor Oscar A. Romero. Gregory Annenberg Weingarten has also joined his fellow Annenberg Foundation trustees in supporting Brilliant Corners, a nonprofit organization working to prevent and respond to the spread of the virus amongst individuals experiencing homelessness.

Beyond our contributions to health service providers, we are working closely with our grantee-partners to ensure nonprofit sustainability and provide flexibility in the face of widespread event cancellations and evolving policies. Further, Gregory and the GRoW team are reviewing our annual contributions, and are in conversation with grantee-partners on a case-by-case basis to ascertain their current circumstances and the ways in which we can offer timely support for their general operations.
