On April 30, 2026, the Community Foundation of the Ozarks, in partnership with the Louis L. and Julia Dorothy Coover Charitable Foundation and Commerce Trust, granted a total of $500,000 to 23 nonprofits and school districts.
The Coover Regional Resiliency Grants support agencies that serve low-income individuals and families in rural communities and are facing financial challenges due to the loss or significant reduction of federal and/or state funding. This year’s Coover Regional grant program was doubled by a match from The HWS Charitable Foundation Inc., a private foundation with a passion for improving economic outcomes of residents in rural communities.
