HCA Houston Healthcare has awarded a $25,000 grant to Urban Harvest through its HCA Healthcare Foundation to improve access to quality and nutritious food across the greater Houston area.
The grant is from the foundation’s Healthier Tomorrow Fund, part of its Community Catalyst Grant Program, which aims to support organizations addressing top-priority community needs, according to a Dec. 15 news release shared with Becker’s.
