The Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana Foundation offers Special Project Grants to support organizations aiming to enhance their community impact. These grants are designed to align with the Foundation's mission by addressing various issues affecting Louisiana's health and community well-being. The program specifically targets nonprofit organizations that are 501(c)(3) IRS-designated and in good standing with the Louisiana Secretary of State, working for charitable, religious, scientific, literary, or other similar purposes. This ensures that funding is directed towards legitimate organizations committed to improving the state. The primary goal of these grants is to empower organizations to either complete existing projects previously funded by the Foundation or to strategically expand current efforts and implement new initiatives. These new efforts must be based on clear evidence of need and solid data, emphasizing a data-driven approach to community development and health improvement. The target beneficiaries are the communities across all parishes in Louisiana, particularly those impacted by health and well-being challenges. The Foundation's strategic priorities are evident in its focus on supporting projects that demonstrate a clear pathway to increased community impact. The "theory of change" implied here is that by investing in established or well-researched new projects, the Foundation can directly contribute to tangible improvements in health and community well-being across Louisiana. The funding information specifies grant sizes ranging from $10,000 to $100,000, with a duration of one year, indicating a commitment to significant, yet focused, short-term impact. Expected outcomes include the successful completion of existing projects, as well as the strategic expansion or effective implementation of new initiatives that are supported by strong data. Measurable results would likely stem from the "clear evidence of need and solid data" requirement, meaning organizations would need to demonstrate the impact of their efforts on Louisiana's health or community well-being. While specific metrics are not detailed, the emphasis on data suggests that grantees will be held accountable for demonstrating quantifiable improvements in their target areas, contributing to the Foundation's overarching goal of fostering a healthier and more resilient Louisiana.
