Grants to USA nonprofit organizations for community benefit activities. Funding preference will be given to proposals taking place in locations where at least one member of the funding source either resides or visits frequently, so that the utilization of funds can be more easily monitored. The trustees reside in Houston, Texas; Las Vegas, Nevada; and Murrieta, California.
Preference is given to organizations that have low administrative and overhead costs so that the majority of the funds will apply to the primary need. Grant requests to fund capital improvements for such organizations will also be considered.
