Lowe's Toolbox for Education

The Lowe’s Charitable and Educational Foundation is dedicated to improving the communities we serve through support of public education, community improvement projects and home safety initiatives.

Primary philanthropic focus areas are:

  • Community improvement projects
  • Public Education, priority is given to K-12 public schools

GUIDELINES FOR SUBMISSION OF A COMMUNITY GRANT:

The Foundation provides funding only to 501(c) (3) tax-exempt nonprofit organizations and public agencies in communities where Lowe’s operates stores and distribution centers.

Lowe's Charitable and Educational Foundation requires that all applicants take an eligibility test. Organizations that pass will be considered, but not guaranteed a grant. LCEF receives far more requests than it can accommodate. Many times, requests that pass the eligibility test and fall within the stated guidelines are not approved.

  • Grants generally range from $5,000 to $25,000.
  • The Foundation will reserve the right to consider an organization's grant application only once per calendar year.

The Foundation's charitable contributions are not used for:

  • Individuals and families
  • National health organizations and their local affiliates
  • Religious organizations and church or denomination-sponsored programs or events
  • Special events, such as conferences, dinners, sport competitions, festivals or art exhibits
  • Sponsorship of fundraising events (i.e. dinners, walks, golf tournaments and auctions)
  • Goodwill advertising or marketing
  • Political, labor, veteran/fraternal organizations, civic clubs or candidates
  • Sports teams or athletic events
  • Arts-based programs
  • Animal rescue and support groups
  • Travel-related events, including student trips or tours
  • Development or production of books, films, videos or television programs
  • Capital campaigns, endowments or endowed chairs
  • Activities of organizations serving primarily their own membership
  • Private schools
  • Continuing education for teachers and staff
  • Institutional overhead and/or indirect cost (i.e. salaries, stipends, benefits and most project labor costs)
  • Memorial campaigns
  • Multi-year requests
  • Tickets to events

2009-2010 Grant Application Update

For more than 60 years, Lowe's has supported the communities we call home. At a time when schools and community groups are struggling to make ends meet, Lowe's Charitable and Educational Foundation recognizes that we must increase our focus on basic, one-time project needs.

This year, we challenge ourselves to seek ways to provide the tools that help our educators and parent groups through these challenging times efficiently and with the greatest impact. In 2009, basic needs will take priority. Please keep this focus in mind as you apply for a Toolbox for Education grant in the 2009-2010 academic year.

This program is now being managed through the Lowe's Toolbox for Education grant program. Click here to apply for a grant online

Deadline: The new 2010 applications should be available in mid-July 2009. Please make sure that you check their web site around that date.
