Ideal Applicant
Small to mid-sized nonprofits or faith-based groups with programs in youth services, homeless ministry, health/children’s support, adaptive sports, or liberty-oriented/policy work, particularly those with connections to the foundation’s local Texas network.
Good Fit
- • Located in Texas or within the regional footprint the foundation has supported.
- • Project budget and request sizes in the low-thousands rather than large capital asks.
- • Mission alignment with faith-based, youth development, homelessness, health/children’s, disability inclusion, or liberty-oriented causes.
- • An introduction or existing connection to someone in the foundation’s network or prior grantees.
Geography
Grants in the latest year went to organizations in four states, but over half of grant dollars were concentrated in Texas, indicating a regional/state-focused footprint rather than a national one.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded 10 distinct recipients in the latest year across varied missions (faith, youth, health, policy, adaptive sports), and new grantees appear regularly, suggesting a moderately diverse recipient set for a micro private foundation.
New Applicants
Behavioral evidence shows seven new grantees in the latest year, implying that new entrants have been added, but the foundation’s filings and application notes indicate grants are preselected/invitation-only, so public application access is limited and direct openness cannot be confirmed.
