The Board of Directors of the Living Well Foundation announces that a Grant Cycle for 2024 will open April 26, 2024, to accept letters of intent, with applications completed by May 31, 2024. All requests must be submitted through the online software portal on the Foundation website by the completion date in order to be considered.
Grant-writing seminars and information for the grant cycle will be offered Monday, March 18, 2024, from 1:30-4:30 p.m. and on Tuesday, March 26, 2024, from 9:00-12:30 p.m. both at LA Delta Community College’s Community Auditorium off Millhaven Road in Monroe, LA.

With awareness of the challenges that continue for all ages for better medical, dental, and behavioral/mental health, the Foundation seeks applications from qualifying organizations which will have large impact for the region. Grant applications should address one or more of the identified priorities for the cycle. These priorities are 1) healthy lifestyles including nutrition and food disparity, physical activity and wellness, or 2) access to healthcare including medical, dental, and behavioral/mental health programming/services, or 3) special needs of children and youth including medical, dental, and behavioral/mental health programming, or 4) suicide prevention/intervention for all ages, or 5) mental health focus on cognitive disorders including dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. The Foundation advises that large impact projects which have collaboration or matching funding and which are sustainable over time will offer more opportunities for issues to be addressed. Creative new programming or collaborations in the identified priorities are of interest for this funding cycle.
The Living Well Foundation is a non-profit public charity providing grants and initiatives to qualifying organizations to improve the health and well-being of populations in 8 parishes in northeast LA.
