Survey Findings: Perceptions of Health Funders
In July and August 2025, FGS Global conducted research on behalf of Grantmakers In Health (GIH) to help health funders better understand how they are viewed by the public. The research included an online survey of engaged voters nationwide and an online focus group with Washington, DC, policy professionals. An overview of the survey and online focus group findings is now available to all GIH Funding Partners.
