St. David’s Foundation Awards $55.5 million in Second Half of the Year
2023 cumulative investments total $75.9 million
St. David’s Foundation, one of the largest health foundations in the country, announces $55.5 million in grant funding to benefit Central Texas in the second half of 2023. A total of 67 grants were awarded from July through December 2023 across 59 local and grassroots organizations that provide essential services and reflect the Foundation’s commitment to advancing health equity in Central Texas through investment and action. Cumulatively in 2023, the Foundation approved $75.9 million in grant investments back into the Central Texas community.
“We close out the last year reflecting on the vital work of organizations working to address the ongoing health disparities across Central Texas,” said Dr. Edward Burger, President and CEO of St. David’s Foundation. “These investments reflect our commitment to removing barriers to better living today and changing systems and conditions to improve outcomes for a healthier community tomorrow.”
The 2023 grants were distributed to vital organizations that are working to address the critical health needs of our community and advance health equity. This includes increasing access to health services for the uninsured, critical infrastructure for our community, capacity building to strengthen the nonprofit sector, and innovation.
“Equity means everyone has the opportunity to thrive,” said Regan Gruber Moffitt, Vice President of Community Investments for St. David’s Foundation. “We’re incredibly proud to stand in partnership with the determined leaders of our local nonprofits who work tirelessly to keep our community healthy.”
St. David’s Foundation supports a diverse ecosystem of organizations in Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays, Travis, and Williamson County that are making meaningful impact helping underserved and marginalized Central Texas residents. See the full list of grant recipients below.
