The Charles E. Loehr Charitable Trust is committed to supporting scientific, educational, religious, and charitable purposes primarily within Wooster and Wayne County, Ohio.
The grant program prioritizes projects and programs that offer year-round service, directly benefit individuals in alignment with the organization's core social mission, and meet a proven community need. It seeks to support initiatives with broad impact, especially for underserved populations, and emphasizes the importance of measurable outcomes, sustainability, financial accountability, and collaborative efforts. Additionally, it favors organizations that do not duplicate existing services, have been operational for at least three years, and can demonstrate the impact of their proposed project with at least one year of measurable results before applying.
