Houston Endowment Grant

To be eligible to receive funding from Houston Endowment, an organization should drive our strategic priorities: Arts and Parks, Civic Engagement, and PreK-12 Public Education. 

• Arts and Parks: We support efforts to maintain and strengthen the robustness of our local arts and cultural organizations – from world recognized institutions to emerging organizations. We also support efforts toward enhancing community connectivity through greenspaces.
• Civic Engagement: We support a robust democracy, strong civic integration of immigrants, and independent local journalism.
• PreK-12 Public Education: We believe teachers are critically important and aim to strengthen the pipeline of well-prepared and supported teachers. In addition, we support initiatives that develop and sustain high quality schools that are accessible to all families.

Following review of the unsolicited request, program officers will either invite an application or notify you that your unsolicited request has been declined. You will typically receive a decision by email within three months.
