The Wallace Foundation

Invest in Impact

Every gift goes to work in the community—in mentorship, in classrooms, in health screenings, and in the neighborhoods from which our students come.

Give where you want it to land, or give and let us put it where it is needed most.

Where Your Gift Goes

  • Sean Strong Scholarship

    Sends Baton Rouge and New Orleans students to college in Sean’s name, awarded on resilience and service rather than rank alone.

  • Civic Engagement

    Backs the MLK Day of Service and the volunteering, community projects and civic participation around them.

  • Educational Advancement

    Supports college and cultural exposure, financial literacy and the enrichment that gets students to graduation and past it.

  • Healthy Living & Wellness

    Funds the Healing Helps grief workshops and the health screenings and wellness education the Foundation runs alongside them.

  • Mentorship & Personal Development

    Keeps Mentor Mondays, the Strong Summer Experience and the Youth Football Camp running, and the mentors in the room.

Giving as an Organization

Businesses, congregations, schools and community groups underwrite whole programs rather than single gifts. Partnership puts your organization alongside the families we serve.
