The mission of The LogistiCare Foundation (LGTCF) is to increase access to transportation for senior citizens, persons with disabilities and persons living in poverty, in order to improve the quality of life of these individuals.
The LGTCF gives funding priority to projects in transportation, but will not exclude from consideration funding requests that further the twin goals of improving independent living and quality of life of the target populations. To this end, the LGTCF may fund many types of projects:
- Pilot projects for demonstration and research
- Direct support through established community-based programs
- Communication and education activities
- Policy analysis and program development
The LGTCF seeks projects that maximize opportunities to meet the following criteria:
- Impact. Projects that serve a wide segment of a target population that has previously not been served. (No duplication of services)
- Leverage. Projects that build partnerships or generate matching funds or resources.
- Innovation. Pilot projects which propose new and efficient approaches to specific problems within the target populations.
- Management and Program Accountability. Proof of management and financial oversight capacity, qualifications of program staff, composition of governing board, history of service delivery and clearly stated outcomes with concrete, measurable program objectives.
- Community. Building and inclusion of diverse community members.
Before grant awards are made, The LGTCF board of directors carefully reviews each proposal to determine if it fits within our mission.
