Nashville Business Journal

The Dell Foundation has awarded $200,000 in grants to four Nashville-area nonprofits that focus on the health needs of young people.

The four, two-year $50,000 Dell “Healthy Community” grants are awarded to communities where significant numbers of Dell employees live and work.

The recipients in Tennessee, according to a Dell release, are:

• Center for Youth Issues - Nashville/STARS, which exists to help students refrain from the use of alcohol, other drugs and violence;
• First Steps, Inc., which educates and cares for infant to kindergarten-aged children with special needs;
• Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt;
• Second Harvest Food Bank - Middle Tennessee.

Dell awarded 27 grants in four states. Nonprofits in Texas, Oklahoma and North Carolina also received grants.
