LLBC Foundation

The Louisiana Legislative Black Caucus Foundation is committed to advancing charitable and educational efforts within the state. Foundation Board members include state leaders who are committed to moving Louisiana forward and who support the mission and goals of the LLBC. Each year, the foundation provides scholarships to students and community members living in districts represented by members of the Louisiana Legislative Black Caucus. These scholarships are awarded to high school and college students who demonstrate academic excellence. Recipients have included first-generation college students as well as individuals transitioning out of the foster care system.
