About Ae Leonard Family Giving Council
A.E. Leonard Family Giving Council’s largest recent grant in the data was a $50,000 award to North Rock Church in Aubrey, Texas, which is a useful entry point to the funder’s pattern: faith-linked, local, and closely tied to San Antonio-area community support. The council operates as the family philanthropy arm of Leonard Holding Company and gives through direct charitable support as well as scholarships for employees and their families. Its grant history shows repeated backing for organizations serving churches, biblical leadership, women, family stabilization, and community care. Recent awards also show multi-year support rather than isolated gifts. NextTalk received grants in 2023, 2024, and 2025, while Biblical Leadership for Excellence and Any Woman Can also appear across multiple years. That repeat giving suggests ongoing relationships with select organizations. The council’s scholarship program is another defining feature, with support directed toward higher education for Leonard Holding Company team members and their families. Across the recent grant list, the foundation’s giving is concentrated in practical, community-based support and faith-oriented programming, with a clear preference for general support grants.
