A History of Giving Back
Since awarding our first grants in 2002, the Lawrence Township Community Foundation (LTCF) has provided over $1,377,000 in grant funding for more than 50 local nonprofit organizations who serve the people of Lawrence Township. Operating with a completely volunteer board of directors, the LTCF serves as a careful clearinghouse for funds donated by corporate sponsors who have entrusted this significant funding to the Foundation.
The Board works to carefully screen project proposals and award grants as appropriate in two cycles, spring and fall. Continued funding from our main sponsor, Bristol Myers Squibb, and two key sponsors, The Lawrenceville School and Educational Testing Service (ETS), along with local individuals making personal donations, allows the LTCF to provide grants to nonprofit groups supporting important and innovative programs serving Lawrence Township residents.
