About Lozier Foundation

The Lozier Foundation concentrates its giving on strengthening local philanthropic infrastructure in Omaha and supporting innovative mental health work. The vast majority of funding is directed to the Omaha Community Foundation—likely to build endowment or to enable local grantmaking—while a single large grant supports a national mental health innovation organization. The pattern suggests a place-based focus with selective issue-specific support rather than broad multi-issue grantmaking.

About Lozier Foundation

A defining feature of The Lozier Foundation is its repeated seven-figure support for the Omaha Community Foundation, including two $7,000,000 grants in 2024 and a $6,000,000 grant in 2023. That pattern points to a funder that uses major operating support to strengthen local philanthropic infrastructure rather than spreading dollars broadly across many fields. The foundation also pairs that place-based work with select issue-specific grants, especially in mental health and education. In the recent grants list, Mental Health Innovation Foundation received $2,000,000 in 2024 and another $2,000,000 in 2025 for general operating support. The University of Nebraska Foundation also appears multiple times, including grants for general operating support and a specific Teacher Scholars Academy award. Across the recent record, The Lozier Foundation shows a consistent preference for sizable, flexible awards to organizations that shape local systems, build capacity, or support community-serving institutions in Omaha and Nebraska.

What Lozier Foundation Funds

In local civic infrastructure, the foundation gave $1,000,000 to Collective for Hope in 2025 for general operating support, alongside $500,387 to Omaha Parks Foundation Inc. for general operating support. It also backed neighborhood and family-serving work through $1,000,000 to Youth Emergency Services Inc. and $625,000 to Justice for Our Neighbors - Ne, both in Omaha. Education and educator development are another visible thread: the University of Nebraska Foundation received $1,150,000 in 2023 for Teacher Scholars Academy, plus later general operating support awards. Child and family support appears in grants to Child Saving Institute Inc., which received $500,000 in 2024 and another $500,000 in 2025 for general operating support. The foundation also supported Foodbank for the Heartland with $500,000 in 2025.

How Lozier Foundation Gives

Typical grants cluster in the mid-five-figure to low-six-figure range, with p25 at $10,000, median at $32,640, and p75 at $79,425. The recent record also includes a long tail of very large operating grants, showing that the foundation can make substantial multi-million-dollar awards alongside smaller gifts. Recipients appear across multiple years, including Omaha Community Foundation, Mental Health Innovation Foundation, University of Nebraska Foundation, and Child Saving Institute Inc., which suggests ongoing relationships rather than one-off awards. The foundation is a regular funder, funds individuals, and makes program-related investments. Its grantmaking is local in scope.
