Community Grants - Lozier and tags on every page of your site. Giving back to the community is at the heart of Lozier employees. The intent of the Lozier Community Grants program is to give back to the communities where we do business.

The program will be managed by an employee committee at each site. Grant applications will be submitted online and reviewed by foundation staff for IRS eligibility before being forwarded to each site’s employee committee for review. Each grant application should be evaluated and awarded with the same ethics and integrity that we apply to our everyday operations.

Community Grant Applications Are Closed Applications will open again in the spring of 2027 The Lozier Community Grants’ focus is education, social services and issues involving women and children with an emphasis on underrepresented populations.

Grants are to be awarded to non-profit organizations that align with these funding priorities: Programs that focus on academic improvement, mentoring, and career development as well as programs that provide direct support to schools. Programs meeting basic health, welfare, and other needs of the underprivileged, sick, or elderly. Programs that make our communities a positive, interesting place to live and raise a family.
