Across 182 funder-year observations in this group, a typical foundation funded 67% of the same organizations again the following year.

Foundations that fund diseases & disorders in Texas and accept requests
These are the funders worth your time first: each one granted to this cause in this state, and none of them told the IRS it only funds organizations it picks itself. Ordered by how many grants they made, not by dollars. That shows how widely each one gives, not whether any one of them would take a new applicant. Typical grant is the median, so you can judge whether you are their size.

Total granted to organizations in each city. Funding is usually far more concentrated than people expect, which matters when you are judging your own odds.
How to use this list
- Start with the foundations that accept requests. The rest almost never respond to unsolicited approaches.
- Check whether they fund organizations your size. The median grant here is $1K — a funder writing $1K checks is unlikely to write you a six-figure one.
- Look for a local connection. Foundations concentrate their giving geographically, and repeat the same grantees year after year.
- Read their recent grants before writing. Past giving tells you what they actually fund, which is often narrower than their stated mission.
