The Mobley Foundation gives a small number of sizeable grants focused on a mix of one major institutional health gift and several community-level organizations in Longview, TX. They favor unrestricted/operations support and fund faith-based ministries, local cultural institutions, and a major cancer center, indicating both a local community focus and a priority for health philanthropy. The pattern suggests a donor who makes a single large strategic gift alongside several equal, substantial community grants.
Mobley Foundation Co Nancy Mobley’s 2025 giving is marked by a single large health gift alongside a cluster of substantial local operating grants in East Texas. The largest recent grant went to MD Anderson Cancer Center for operations, while four other 2025 awards of $105,000 each supported Heartisans Marketplace, Longview Community Ministries, Longview Museum of Fine Arts, and Camp Gilmont. That mix points to a funder that combines medical philanthropy with place-based support for community services, faith-based work, and cultural institutions. The foundation also backs organizations serving specific community needs. Presbyterian Childrens Home received support for foster care and adoption, and Habitat for Humanity was funded for veterans and elderly assistance. Earlier grants show repeated support for organizations working on homelessness, domestic violence, wounded warrior services, and humanitarian relief. Across the recent record, the foundation appears to favor operating support and direct-service organizations, with most dollars directed to recipients in Texas and especially the Longview area. Its grantmaking is also notable for consistency across years. Several recipients appear multiple times, suggesting ongoing relationships rather than one-time awards. The result is a profile of a local foundation that pairs a major health-related commitment with regular support for community institutions and human services.
Health is a clear part of the portfolio. In 2025, Mobley Foundation Co Nancy Mobley gave $500,000 to MD Anderson Cancer Center for operations, and it also supported American Cancer Society for cancer resources with $11,250 in 2023 and 2024, plus $5,000 in 2025. Human services are another recurring theme. Hiway 80 Rescue Mission received $7,500 in 2023 and 2024 and $5,000 in 2025 for general operations tied to food and shelter, while Family Promise of Longview received $3,750 in 2024 for serving homeless families. The foundation also funds family and safety services. Presbyterian Childrens Home received $100,000 in 2025 and $7,500 in both 2023 and 2024 for foster care and adoption, and Women in Need Inc received $7,500 in 2023 and 2024, then $5,000 in 2025, for support to survivors of domestic violence. Veteran and senior support appears as well through Habitat for Humanity, which received $100,000 in 2025 and $11,250 in both 2023 and 2024 for gifts for veterans and elderly.

Concentrated funder with few, relatively large grants: one very large institutional gift complemented by several similarly sized local grants; emphasis on unrestricted/operations support rather than project-restricted funding.
Notable grantees: MD Anderson Cancer Center, Longview Community Ministries, Camp Gilmont, Heartisans Marketplace, Longview Museum of Fine Arts
Typical grants cluster in the $5,000 to $11,250 range, with a median of $7,500, a 25th percentile of $5,000, and a 75th percentile of $11,250. The distribution includes a much larger strategic award of $500,000, followed by several six-figure grants in 2025. The recent record shows repeat giving to the same organizations across multiple years, especially in the $5,000 to $11,250 range. That pattern suggests ongoing relationships rather than isolated gifts. The foundation is not a funder of individuals and is not making program-related investments. The recent grants also emphasize operating and general support language, alongside targeted program support.
