Caregiver support for HLTH 2023
Without access to resources to pay for childcare and other caregiving resources, women and non-binary individuals miss out on career-building opportunities. The Zorya Foundation exists to remove these barriers to advancement for women in working in healthcare. Working toward this mission, we’re proud to announce our second annual partnership with HLTH Foundation.
Zorya Foundation has provided a grant to HLTH Foundation to award ten (10) $1,000 caregiving grants to HLTH 2023 speakers or patient partners providing consulting services in the #AskPatients Lounge at the event. Zorya is a trust-based philanthropy—grants are distributed directly in cash to awardees for caregiving and childcare options that work best for them and their families.
Recognizing that the gender disparity in caregiving leads to a loss of career-shaping opportunities, these grants are meant for women and non-binary healthcare leaders who would not otherwise be able to come to HLTH 2023 due to parenting or family caregiving responsibilities and additionally support gender parity in the lineup of HLTH speakers and patient consultants.

Eligibility & Awards: Grants will be awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis to women and non-binary attendees to help defray the costs of child or family caregiving during the time the awardee is attending HLTH 2023. Names of awardees will remain private.
