Ideal Applicant
Small to mid-sized educational organizations or schools in Louisiana with clear, project-specific requests for supplies or program support.
Good Fit
- • Based in Louisiana (core share of dollars went in-state).
- • Request is for education or education supplies, matching the foundation's stated grant purposes.
- • Fits within small grant size ranges (most grants under $5k with some $5k–$10k awards).
- • Willingness to use the foundation's application form and submit via the listed mail/phone contact.
Geography
Giving is highly concentrated in Louisiana: in 2023 about 92% of dollars went to LA recipients and only a small share reached a second state.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded a modestly diverse set of independent recipients (12 distinct grantees in 2023 and 17 in 2022) but the mission focus is narrow (primarily education and supplies).
New Applicants
Direct evidence of turnover exists (three new recipients in 2023) and the filing lists an application form, contact name, address, phone, and a deadline, but there is no public website; openness is plausible but not demonstrably broad.
