The Larry and Pat McNeil Foundation appears to be a small, family-run private foundation that makes a small number of sizeable, general-purpose charitable gifts rather than many targeted grants. All recorded giving ($293,500 across three grants) is listed simply as "charitable" and directed to an undisclosed recipient(s) (noted as "See Attached Schedule"), suggesting flexible, possibly unrestricted support to a limited set of beneficiaries—likely local or regional organizations given the foundation's El Lago, TX location.
Highly concentrated: very few grants (three) comprising the foundation's entire giving, all reported to an undisclosed recipient(s). Pattern suggests repeat or multi-installment funding to the same beneficiary group with broadly‑defined charitable purpose rather than many small targeted grants.
The largest recent gift from the Larry and Pat Mcneil Foundation was $250,000 to Driscoll Children's Hospital in Corpus Christi, a clear signal that the foundation’s giving is centered on sizable charitable support for organizations in Texas. The grant record also includes a $50,000 award to Church of the Good Shepherd and a $25,000 grant to Foster Village of Corpus Christi, showing a pattern of funding across healthcare, faith-based, and family-support organizations. The foundation’s recent awards are concentrated in Corpus Christi and other Texas recipients, and the grants are described broadly as charitable rather than tied to narrowly defined program areas. That points to flexible support for a limited set of local organizations, with the foundation making relatively few grants at higher dollar amounts. The mix of recipients suggests a discretionary family foundation style of giving, with the same geographic circle appearing repeatedly in the record. Its latest 990 year on file is 2025, and the grant history provided shows all recorded giving going to U.S. organizations.
Healthcare is a prominent part of the Larry and Pat Mcneil Foundation’s recent giving. The foundation awarded $250,000 to Driscoll Children's Hospital for charitable purposes, making it the largest named grant in the record. The foundation also supported community-based and faith-related organizations in Corpus Christi. It gave $50,000 to Church of the Good Shepherd and $20,000 to Coastal Bend Community Foundation, both listed as charitable gifts. Family and direct-service support also appears in the record. Foster Village of Corpus Christi received $25,000, and American Cancer Society received $10,000, both as charitable awards. A $5,000 grant to South Texas Mission of Mercy adds another health-related example. Across these grants, the purposes are recorded broadly as charitable rather than narrowly project-specific.
The foundation’s typical grant size sits in a narrow mid-sized range: p25 is $58,625, median is $64,250, and p75 is $69,875. Recent grants also show a few larger awards, including $250,000 and $165,000, alongside smaller gifts down to $5,000. The pattern suggests concentrated giving rather than a wide spread of small grants. The record includes repeated “See Attached Schedule” entries in 2023 and 2025, indicating ongoing support across multiple years to the same undisclosed recipient group. The foundation is a private family foundation and does not fund individuals or make program-related investments.
