Key takeaways

The foundation's stated geographic focus is the Concho Valley, with San Angelo as its priority, and it gives high priority to health issues, so a health-focused project in that area is the clearest fit.
Half of its 87 grants to organisations were about $37,500 or less, so a modest, well-documented request suits it best, though its grants go as high as $1,750,000 and that typical band is not a ceiling.
In the filing, 62% of its grant dollars went to organisations it had also funded in the earlier two filings, so building a relationship before a first request may matter, and an early conversation is worth having.
Submit at least three to four months before funds are needed, since applications are rolling and the trustees decide quarterly.
Do not apply for individuals, religious purposes, past operating deficits or debt, fundraising events, political or legislative aims, or a supplemental request for a project the foundation has already funded, and private foundations are not eligible.
