About Borracho Pescador
Borracho Pescador centers its giving on a fishing tournament that supports the International Rett Syndrome Foundation, Texas Children's Hospital, and related research and family support efforts tied to Rett syndrome. The foundation’s recent grant record shows a small set of beneficiaries receiving repeated general-support awards, with the largest checks going to the International Rett Syndrome Foundation and Texas Children's Hospital at $88,000 each in 2024. That pattern points to flexible funding rather than project-specific awards. The foundation also extends support beyond the core Rett syndrome network. In 2024, it awarded general support to The Marfan Foundation and to Lls Austin, while Casting 4 a Cure appears in the recent grant list in both 2023 and 2024. Those recurring awards suggest an ongoing relationship with a limited group of organizations rather than a broad, one-time grantmaking program. Leadership is listed under Kyle Wright, and the foundation’s filings show annual grants of $385,000 against total assets of $22,383 on the latest 990 year on file.
What Borracho Pescador Funds
Borracho Pescador’s clearest thematic thread is Rett syndrome. In 2024, it gave $88,000 to the International Rett Syndrome Foundation for general support, and it paired that with another $88,000 general-support grant to Texas Children's Hospital. The foundation also backs community-linked charitable fundraising. Casting 4 a Cure received $19,000 in 2024 and $18,000 in 2023, both for general support, indicating continued support across multiple years. Beyond that core area, the recent grant list includes medical-condition and health-oriented support to The Marfan Foundation for general support. Lls Austin also appears as a 2024 general-support grantee, showing that the foundation’s giving includes other nonprofit organizations outside the Rett syndrome-centered pattern.
