Louisiana Foundations Making Grants Under $5,000

These 29 foundations are based in Louisiana and reported a median grant under $5,000 on their most recent Form 990-PF filing. A typical grant is not a promise about any single gift -- some of a foundation's grants are smaller than its median, some are larger -- but it is a reasonable signal for whether an application here fits the size of your ask.

A median grant under $5,000 usually fits a smaller, less formal request -- a single event, a modest program cost, or a first ask to a foundation you have not approached before, rather than a multi-year campaign.

Ordered by number of organizations funded, not by dollars -- the same convention as every list on this site. Funding more organizations means more turnover in who gets a grant each year, which is a reasonable proxy for how often a list like this one changes -- it is not a signal that any specific foundation is open to a new, unsolicited applicant.
