About 1 Thing Better Foundation
The 1 Thing Better Foundation concentrates its giving on locally-focused human services and faith-aligned programs in North Texas, with most dollars directed toward a small set of repeat grantees. Major support goes to after‑school youth services in Fort Worth and to faith-based ministry programs, with smaller gifts to military-family scholarships and survivor services. Grants are practical/general operating support rather than highly restricted project funding.
