Purpose

The purpose of the Norco Community Fund, a Donor Advised Fund of The Greater New Orleans Foundation, is to improve the quality of life of people in Norco. An advisory committee of business and civic leaders meet annually to review grant requests in the following program areas: arts and humanities, community development, education, environment, human services, health care, community building, and youth development.

The Fund will only consider support for programs that serve the Norco community and its residents.

The following types of funding will be considered:

  • Grants to support services to Norco residents with priority given to: children and youth services, elderly services, human services, health care/wellness services, and basic human needs;
  • Organizational development grants, including capital expenses for facilities or equipment, for Norco-based organizations;
  • Grants to support community events that promote civic pride and a sense of community in Norco.
