The grant committee reviews all applications and selects applications that fit within our mission. The committee votes on each application and collaborates to select recipients and allocate grant dollars. Grant recipients will be notified before the annual fundraiser, as we like to display the current year’s recipients at each event. Grant checks are sent out to the recipients early the following year.
2017 Grant Recipients
Capital for Kids is a network of volunteer professionals from within the investment management business dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children in need. Capital for Kids supports organizations that educate, protect and encourage the development of children in the North Texas area, and we also raise awareness of children in need of support. Our diligent grant committee evaluates each proposal submitted for funding. Those selected as grant recipients fall in to 2 categories in terms of the scope of their mission and specific project. Our recipients are either Breaking the Cycle of child abuse, p0verty and neglect through education, programs or filling critical needs or providing a Safety Net by providing resources to those children impacted by poverty, neglect and abuse. Please find the analysis of the 2017 Capital for Kids Grant Recipients below. We would like to direct you to the Capital for Kids Website http://www.capitalforkids.org where you will find additional information on each organization we are supporting including a link to their webpage under the beneficiaries tab.
