Using the Google Ad Grant? Make Sure You're Doing It Right.

The Google Ad Grant gives eligible nonprofit clinics $10,000/month in free ad spend — but most misuse it, underperform, or get suspended. This checklist helps you audit your account and fix problems before Google or compliance officers flag them.

Why This Matters

Why This Matters

The Google Ad Grant is one of the most valuable free tools available to nonprofit clinics — but it comes with strict requirements. Accounts that fall out of compliance get paused or suspended, cutting off a significant patient acquisition channel. And clinics in the healthcare space face an extra layer of rules around ad copy, landing pages, and tracking that most digital agencies don't understand.

This checklist helps you audit your account and fix problems fast — before they become serious.

Common problems that put accounts at risk:
  • 01 Ads paused or account suspended for policy violations
  • 02 HIPAA risks in ad copy, landing pages, or analytics tracking
  • 03 Click-through rates below Google's minimum threshold
  • 04 Campaigns that burn through budget without generating patient appointments
