Ideal Applicant
A Texas-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit — especially one serving Fort Worth/Tarrant County — working in education, health, or human services and seeking general operating or program support at the $10k–$70k scale.
Good Fit
- • Organization is located in Texas (in-state eligibility required).
- • Programs align with education, health, or human services priorities.
- • Request size matches recent awards (roughly $10,000–$70,000).
- • Ability to apply by the August 1 deadline and follow Bank of America submission instructions.
- • Local presence or demonstrated impact in Fort Worth/Tarrant County.
Geography
Observed giving is entirely in Texas with a strong concentration in Fort Worth/Tarrant County; the in-state share of dollars is 100%.
Recipient Variety
The foundation made 11 distinct awards in the latest year, funding many independent local charities across education, health, and human services, with only a handful of repeats across the two-year window.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of openness exists: a public Bank of America application page, an August 1 deadline, a named application contact and phone, and behavioral evidence of turnover (seven new recipients in 2023) all suggest unfamiliar applicants can enter the portfolio.
