Ideal Applicant
An established Texas-based nonprofit working in education, medical research, family support, or mental health with an existing local reputation or referral and project budgets in the foundation's typical $7k–$30k range.
Good Fit
- • Located in Texas (especially Houston/Austin area) or with clear Texas program activity
- • Program focus in education, medical research, family services, or mental health
- • Existing relationship, referral, or prior history with the foundation or its grantees
- • Project budget and ask size aligned with recent grants (~$10k–$30k)
- • Demonstrated nonprofit track record and measurable program outcomes
Geography
Giving is heavily concentrated in one state: roughly 81% of dollars stayed in Texas in the latest year, and grants touched only three states overall, indicating a narrow state-focused footprint.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funds about 11–13 distinct recipients per year (11 in the latest year) which shows a moderate spread of independent organizations, though many are recurring across years (nine repeats), so variety is present but selective.
New Applicants
The foundation's filings state it funds only preselected applicants and historical behavior shows mostly returning grantees with only two new recipients in the latest year, so unfamiliar applicants are unlikely to gain entry absent a referral or invitation.
