The Holt Family Foundation, originally founded as The Daybrook Foundation post-Hurricane Katrina, aims to enhance community life in Louisiana. It offers grants to 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations focusing on arts, early childhood education, and community engagement. Additionally, the Foundation provides college scholarships to Louisiana students, emphasizing innovative programs and education to foster positive community development. Its mission reflects the founder's commitment to supporting local families and organizations.

The Holt Family Foundation was originally organized by our founder Gregory Holt as The Daybrook Foundation following the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. At that time, the Foundation was designed to provide assistance to the Daybrook Company employees and to the local surrounding community in the devastated Gulf Coast region. Following the sale of the Daybrook group of companies, the Foundation was reorganized through the Gregory F. Holt Charitable Trust as a Louisiana domiciled private foundation. Today, the Holt Family Foundation continues its vision of supporting local communities and families by providing grants to non-profit organizations and college scholarships to students in Louisiana.
The Holt Family Foundation seeks to positively impact communities by providing support to organizations and students actively working to enhance quality of life through innovative programs, education, and advanced research. The primary focus of the Foundation is to provide college scholarships to Louisiana students.
The Foundation supports primarily Louisiana-based non-profit 501(c)3 organizations that provide public programs in the arts, early childhood education, and community engagement.
