HISTORY

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.
