About New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation

A $500,000 grant to Friends of WWOZ appears at the top of the recent record, and it points to a foundation that uses large awards to support broadcasting and streaming Louisiana music, concerts, and festivals. New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation Inc. also pairs that media support with cultural preservation and community service. In the recent grants list, it backed parade-security work for Black Masking Indians and Social Aid & Pleasure second line parades, musician health and assistance services, and school-based arts programming. Its portfolio shows repeated support for the same kinds of organizations over multiple years, including another large award to Friends of WWOZ in 2024 and a second-line parade security grant that reappears in 2023 and 2025. The foundation’s mission centers on promoting, preserving, perpetuating, and encouraging the music, culture, and heritage of communities in Louisiana through festivals, programs, and other cultural, educational, civic, and economic activities. That broad mission is reflected in grants that move between media documentation, live cultural practice, education, and direct support for musicians and local cultural groups.

What New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation Funds

Music and cultural broadcasting are a clear priority: the foundation gave $450,000 in 2024 to Friends of WWOZ to help broadcast and stream Louisiana music, concerts, and festivals. It also supports parade culture and public safety, including $100,000 in 2024 to Norman Dixon Sr Annual Second Line Parade Fund to provide security for Black Masking Indians and Social Aid & Pleasure second line parades. In musician support, it awarded $100,000 in 2023 to New Orleans Musicians Clinic & Assistance Foundation for comprehensive health care, mental health, and social services for musicians. Arts education is another recurring line of work, shown by $93,000 in 2025 to St Tammany Parish School Board for artist contracts and educational supplies for children.

How New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation Gives

Typical awards cluster at a mid-sized level: p25 is $9,500, median is $36,250, and p75 is $75,164. The recent record also includes repeated funding to the same organizations across 2023, 2024, and 2025, which suggests recurring relationships rather than one-off gifts. The foundation makes program-related investments and operates several named programs, including Community Partnership Grants, Catapult Fund, Class Got Brass, and fellowship research support. Community Partnership Grants are competitive and accept unsolicited requests; the Catapult Fund and the school and archive programs also accept unsolicited applications.
