Walgreens: Walgreen Co. awards grants mostly to eligible nonprofits working in local Walgreen communities, with a portion of the budget reserved for select national organizations. Health and education are priorities. Eligible nonprofit organizations with programs in these priority areas should have cost-effective projects operating within an area Walgreen serves. Priority will be given to those requests which most closely reflect the demographics of Walgreen patients and employees.
