Lincoln Financial Foundation

|
| The Lincoln Financial Foundation's approach to local philanthropic giving reflects Lincoln Financial's strong connection to its communities. Recognizing that the employees in its affiliate offices can best determine the needs of their respective communities, Lincoln Financial has created an employee giving network by establishing local Charitable Contribution Committees in our primary business locations. These committees review grant proposals, make site visits, and award grants to the nonprofit organizations that they believe will make an enduring impact on their communities. The Charitable Contributions Committees bring the Lincoln Foundation's mission to life by focusing contributions in three "quality of life" areas: Arts and Culture; Education/Workforce Development & Human Services. |
