The Rice Family Foundation to Support Local Area Nonprofit Organizations
The Rice Family Foundation was established in 2017 by Michael & Jane Rice and Dylan & Stacie Lissette, third and fourth-generation members of the Utz Brands, Inc. snack foods family. The Foundation was created to provide leadership and support for families' education, health, and well-being in Hanover, Pennsylvania, and surrounding communities.
Using funds granted by the Foundation, The Rice Family Foundation supports eligible local area non-profit organizations that dedicate their time, efforts, and resources to foster a better community. This is made possible based on philanthropic commitments from the Rice and Lissette families.
In 2022, the Foundation contributed to fifty-seven (57) local area non-profit organizations. These organizations, such as the Visiting Nurse Association or VNA of Hanover & Spring Grove, offer home health and hospice care, to the Children’s Home of York, an organization dedicated to empowering children and helping them to thrive while strengthening families, to the Salvation Army, who support those less fortunate and in need of help.
The deadline for consideration of 2023 grant funds is no later than July 31, 2023, and can be made by visiting The Rice Family Foundation's Application page.
Said Stacie Lissette, Director of The Rice Family Foundation, "With the tremendous feedback the Foundation has received, we are excited to continue our work and make 2023 grant funds available to qualifying local area nonprofit organizations. These organizations work so hard each day to help improve lives and strengthen our community. We are so fortunate to live and work beside them.”
The Rice Family Foundation will accept applications through a process that is detailed by visiting its website. Applications for 2023 can be made online or by mail-in hard copy and will be accepted until July 31, 2023. Awards will be announced and distributed no later than December 31, 2023.
