The Greater New Orleans Foundation (Foundation) is the community foundation serving a 13-parish region in Southeast Louisiana. The Foundation operates beyond the scope of the traditional community foundation model of holding donor funds for distribution to the nonprofit organizations of their choice. The Foundation is a relationship builder, convener, connector, and innovator. Our core values of equity, collaboration, innovation, and responsiveness guide our efforts to bolster the nonprofit sector of the Greater New Orleans Region through our robust programs and activities.

With the belief that "everyone can be a philanthropist, " for over 100 years the Foundation has helped donors connect their values to their giving through activities, like GiveNOLA Day. Your support allows the Foundation to conduct research, bring the public and private sectors together to solve community challenges, and make grants to improve housing, the arts, environmental sustainability, and economic opportunity for all. Your gift also ensures the Foundation can help nonprofit leaders meet community needs by offering organizational effectiveness workshops and training sessions.
