The Pulse of Tasmania grant program was created by St LukesHealth, TasPlan and Bank of Us as the state grappled with the coronavirus pandemic earlier this year.
On Tuesday, $45,000 from the program was awarded to Dress for Success Hobart, Neighbourhood Houses Tasmania, and FitEx.
Dress For Success Hobart provides women with work-appropriate attire and job support mentoring to help them achieve gainful employment.
The funding for Neighbourhood Houses Tasmania will be used for its Team Care workshops which support mental health.
FitEx's funding will go towards fitness and health sessions across the state.
The remaining recipients of the Pulse of Tasmania funding will be announced early in 2021.
