Our Vision and Purpose

The Grigg Lewis Foundation has as its vision and purpose to continue the philanthropic works that began with and were carried on by Henrietta G. Lewis during her lifetime.

Our areas of greatest interest include Arts & Culture, Community Improvements, Educational Programming, Health & Wellness Programs (non-clinical), Local Historical Preservation, Senior Programs and Youth Programs, with a heavy focus on benefitting the residents of Eastern Niagara County.

Whether the Foundation provides your program with financial assistance or not, our staff is available to provide program evaluations and to assist you in creating relationships, and promoting partnerships within our community.
