For the Love of Humankind

Did you know that the word philanthropy comes from the Greek word “philos” meaning loving and the word “anthropos” meaning humankind? So when we say that we are a philanthropic organization what we really mean is that we do what we do because we love people and our communities.

So why does Philanthropy matter to those who live the Texas Forest Country? Because the pure joy of working hard to make a positive difference in the lives of people sustains us.

The Texas Forest Country Community Foundation harnesses the generosity of local individuals, families and businesses to support our own communities.  There is a unique kind of satisfaction in knowing that you are making a real difference in the lives of your neighbors.

We Put Giving to Work!
