Weyerhaeuser Giving Fund 2026 — Louisiana
The Weyerhaeuser Giving Fund supports local projects in communities where Weyerhaeuser has a significant presence. In Louisiana, the company lists Dodson, Holden, Natchitoches, Simsboro (Arcadia), and Zwolle as communities with local facilities and identifies eligible Timberlands geography across Beauregard, Bienville, Bossier, Caddo, Caldwell, Catahoula, Claiborne, De Soto, East Feliciana, Grant, Jackson, La Salle, Lincoln, Livingston, Morehouse, Natchitoches, Ouachita, Rapides, Red River, Sabine, Saint Helena, Saint Tammany, Tangipahoa, Union, Vernon, Washington, Webster, and Winn parishes.
Funding
The minimum grant award is $1,000. Weyerhaeuser does not publish an applicant-level maximum on the current Giving Fund page; awards vary based on local presence and available philanthropic budget.
Deadline
September 30, 2026. The controlling public page does not state a closing time or time zone, so Atlas does not infer one. Applications are submitted through Weyerhaeuser’s online portal and must include all required attachments.
Who may apply
Eligible U.S. applicants include tax-exempt 501(c)(3) public charities, public education institutions, and government entities qualified under Internal Revenue Code Section 170(c)(1). The proposed program must serve a Weyerhaeuser community.
Relevant focus areas
The fund’s seven focus areas include education and youth development, human services, workforce development, affordable housing, environmental stewardship, civic and cultural growth, and inclusion. For the Louisiana Atlas lane, the strongest fit is for eligible school, youth-development, community-health/human-services, and workforce projects in the listed Louisiana service areas.
Application requirements
Applicants should be prepared to provide their Tax ID, contact information, detailed organizational information, a detailed description of the request, organizational and project financial information, and an updated W-9. The current public page does not state a required applicant match or cost share.
Material restrictions
The Giving Fund does not fund general administrative or indirect overhead, projects outside Weyerhaeuser communities, individuals or direct scholarships, sports teams or athletic events, operating deficits or debt liquidation, endowments and memorials, capital campaigns, multiyear requests, or the other exclusions stated by the funder.
Atlas assessment
Atlas Opportunity Score: 76/100. The opportunity is currently open, includes explicit education/youth and human-services priorities, accepts nonprofit, public-education, and government applicants, and covers a substantial set of Louisiana parishes. The absence of a published applicant maximum and the locally determined nature of awards reduce certainty.
N9+ Fit Score: 12/100. The current fund criteria do not expressly establish a telehealth, clinical-device, diagnostic-equipment, or remote-care funding pathway. Atlas should not represent N9+ allowability as confirmed without applicant-specific and funder-specific validation.
Dr. Miltie direct-applicant path: Not eligible under the published applicant categories. Dr. Miltie, LLC is not a 501(c)(3) public charity, public education institution, or qualifying government entity.
