Its mission is to make Waco a better or more desirable city in which to live. This is realized through support of experimental projects, research, surveys, and special community needs for which normal financing is not available. Eligible applicants are limited to nonprofit organizations. The Foundation will not provide funds for continuing operational costs, and no advance commitment of funds can be made.

Grant Eligibility
Grant requests are considered every month, and awards are made throughout the year. Grants are made exclusively to nonprofit organizations in the Waco area and are not available for normal operating costs or religious purposes (see some examples of past grants).

Applicants are asked to respond to specific guidelines when submitting proposals. Whether or not the Foundation funds a project, the Board and staff appreciate the individuals who strive to strengthen our community.
