Champions of opportunity youth share solutions
In April, we brought together 80+ people to answer the question, “What would it take to reconnect opportunity youth to education and work equitably and at scale?” The convening report shows how organizations across Texas are serving this important group.
Standing with Students
Amid the challenging environment of 2020, we funded many student-centered programs that became beacons of hope, meeting students where they are with timely, tailored, and relevant support to keep them on the track to a postsecondary credential. In our 2020 Annual Report, we share those stories.
Grantmaking Update
Since our founding, Greater Texas Foundation has awarded $115 million in grants for student-centered solutions to help more Texas students achieve their educational goals. Check our website to see investments we’ve made recently.
It’s a Wrap: Texas Rural Collaborations Convening
Just a couple of weeks ago, the foundation hosted the Texas Rural Collaboration Virtual Convening. We plan to release a report summarizing themes from the event, as well as the Guide to Texas Rural Education Collaboratives, through our website, newsletter, and social media channels in Spring 2022. Stay tuned!
