The John and Alice Lloyd Foundation focuses its giving on local human services, concentrating support on a small number of direct-service nonprofits that deliver community-based programs and rehabilitation for underserved populations. Grants are directed to organizations that provide broad charitable services and community rehabilitation, often through repeat awards. The foundation appears to prioritize impact in its immediate region (Northbrook/North Shore area) rather than broad, diversified national giving.
The John and Alice Lloyd Foundation’s giving is anchored by repeat support for Shore Community Serices, which received the largest recent award at $75,000 in 2025 after prior grants of $60,000 in 2024 and $59,815 in 2023. That recurring pattern points to a funder that stays with a small set of local direct-service organizations rather than making broad, scattered awards. Across the recent grants list, the foundation supports community rehabilitation, human services, food assistance, housing stability, and services for vulnerable children and adults. It also backs institutions with a religious or educational mission, including Garrett Theological Seminary, and community-based programs such as Books & Breakfast and Good News Partners. Several grants are aimed at organizations serving underserved populations through practical, day-to-day support: meals, shelter, rehabilitation, academic support, and abuse recovery. The grant record suggests a regional funder with a strong preference for direct service delivery and repeated awards to organizations that operate within its immediate sphere of interest, especially in northern Illinois and nearby Wisconsin.
Human services and rehabilitation are central to the foundation’s portfolio. Divinely Orchestrated in Forest Park received $25,000 in 2023, $20,000 in 2024, and $20,000 in 2025 for rehabilitating underprivileged communities. Books & Breakfast in Evanston also fits that pattern, with $10,000 in 2025 and $6,000 in 2024 for physical, emotional, and academic support. Food access is another clear theme: Greater Chicago Food Depo in Chicago received $5,000 in 2023, $5,000 in 2024, and $5,000 in 2025 for community food supply resource work. The foundation also supports housing and trauma-related services, including Door County Housing Partnership in Baileys Harbor and Help of Door County Inc in Sturgeon Bay.
Typical grants are modest, with a p25 of $1,750, a median of $5,000, and a p75 of $5,500. The grant list shows repeated awards to the same organizations across 2023, 2024, and 2025, which signals ongoing support rather than one-time gifts. The foundation appears to operate as a private family-style grantmaker with a relatively small asset base and annual grants total, and it does not fund individuals or program-related investments. Recent awards are generally made as direct charitable support, including annual fund and operating-style grants.
