Our Community Impact.

See how we empower donors to make a meaningful difference in Greater Houston.

In all that we do, Greater Houston Community Foundation is committed to empowering those who strengthen our communities. Beyond managing funds, the Foundation facilitates multiple initiatives designed to help donors and community leaders make deeper, more targeted impact toward the causes that matter to them.

Community Impact Fund

As we look to the future, the Foundation’s focus includes Community Impact, ultimately leveraging our local knowledge, convening power, and collective resources to help create a better future for all Houstonians. Our Community Impact Fund expands our collective reach to fuel new strategic investments to make Houston a more vibrant region for all.
