About Crossroads Community Services
Crossroads Community Services Inc centers its grantmaking on food assistance distribution, with a 2024 grant to Crossroads Community Services Pantry in Dallas of $2,450,338. The pattern is consistent across the recent grants list: the foundation supports local organizations that move food directly to people in need, including Catholic Charities of Dallas, Dallas Bethlehem Center, and The Stewpot C&Y. That makes the funder easy to read as a direct-service grantmaker rather than a broad, multi-issue philanthropy. The scale is substantial for a local funder. Annual grants given are $26,587,663, while total assets are $4,802,068, indicating a grantmaking model that moves significant resources through community partners. The recipients in the recent list are largely Dallas-area churches, ministries, community centers, and social service organizations, all tied to food assistance distribution. The foundation’s own pantry also appears repeatedly in the recent awards, alongside outside grantees such as Homeless Coalition of Dallas and Irving Schools Foundation - Bowie. That mix suggests a portfolio built around both direct provision and partner-led distribution across the Dallas area.
What Crossroads Community Services Funds
Food security is the clearest theme in Crossroads Community Services Inc’s recent awards. It gave $1,766,134 to Catholic Charities of Dallas for Food Assistance Distribution, showing support for a major local service provider handling food access. Community-based distribution partners appear throughout the list. Dallas Bethlehem Center received $412,225 for Food Assistance Distribution, while Harmony Community Dev Corp received $308,193 for the same purpose. Those grants point to a network approach that channels food through neighborhood organizations. The foundation also funds faith-based and mission-driven groups tied to food access. Royal Haven Baptist Church received $280,087, and Mission Oak Cliff received $224,086, both for Food Assistance Distribution. Another example is Irving Schools Foundation - Bowie, which received $355,336, linking food support to a school-connected recipient.

The recent grants list also shows much larger awards at the top end, reflecting a layered distribution model. The foundation looks highly recurring in its giving.
