Investing in Solutions That Create Long-Term Change

Levi Community Foundation supports nonprofit partners who address the root causes of behavioral health challenges and the social determinants of health—housing, food security, transportation, and community well-being.

Our grantmaking approach centers on collaboration, impact, and sustainability. We seek to strengthen organizations already doing meaningful work in Garland County by providing resources that help expand their reach and deepen their impact.
