Recent Grants

Eligibility Details

Eligible applicants are Texas non profit organizations. Specifically, GTF makes grants to organizations that:

• are described in section 501(c)(3) of the IRS Code, or are governmental units described in Section 170(c)(1) or 511(a)(2)(b) of the IRS Code;
• support the mission of the foundation through Texas-based or Texas-focused work; and
• support or provide specific programs targeting education in furtherance of Greater Texas Foundation's exempt purposes, mission, and vision.

Deadline Details

If you are interested in applying for funding from Greater Texas Foundation, the first step is to email the Director of Programs and Strategy. The Director will then contact you to discuss your program or project and determine whether it aligns with the foundation's mission, strategy, and funding criteria.

If your program or project is a potential fit, you will be invited to submit a brief concept paper, along with a line-item budget, via the foundation's online application system. The concept paper introduces GTF staff and board to your idea so they can consider whether to invite a proposal.

Award Details

Grants typically range between $150,000 and $300,000. However, grant size is dependent on a number of factors. The foundation supports multi-year grants. Generally, grant length is determined on a case-by-case basis depending on the scope, scale, and complexity of the project.
