“Greater Texas Foundation supports efforts to ensure all Texas students are prepared for, have access to, persist in, and complete post-secondary education.
- We put particular focus on helping underserved and disadvantaged populations.
- We pursue our mission by forming partnerships, supporting research, sharing knowledge, and making grants.”

Our mission statement says a great deal about the core values of Greater Texas Foundation and our commitment to education in Texas. As part of that commitment, we work to develop relationships with numerous educational institutions, organizations, governmental agencies, and others involved in education.
Our state is large—in geography, population, and many other measures. The challenges facing Texas education are enormous and greater than one single entity can address. For that reason, the foundation works to achieve specific program goals and five-year objectives through partnerships and by engaging all of its capabilities (grantmaking, strategic scholarships, research, convening, etc.). GTF is a proactive grantmaker and primarily seeks funding opportunities through RFP’s or by invitation, although unsolicited proposals are accepted.
