Ideal Applicant
A small-to-midsize Texas nonprofit (especially San Antonio-area) seeking general operating support or scholarships, with an established track record and clear community impact.
Good Fit
- • Organization is based in or primarily serves Texas, especially the San Antonio region.
- • Request is for general support or scholarship funding within the foundation's typical award range (roughly a few thousand to around $30,000).
- • Clear, established program or scholarship process and evidence of fiscal stewardship.
- • Local community-service, faith-based, education, health, or food-insecurity work that aligns with past recipients.
Geography
Grants are primarily concentrated in Texas (about 79% of dollars) but the foundation funded organizations in five states in the latest year, so the observed footprint is state-focused with occasional out-of-state awards.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 29 distinct grantees (38 and 33 in prior years), funding a mix of scholarships and general support across many independent organizations rather than a tiny closed set.
New Applicants
Direct evidence supports newcomer access: the foundation publishes a grant and scholarship application form on its website and by request, and the data show new grantees in recent years (six new in the latest year and nine in 2023) alongside repeat recipients.
