Paz De Corazon gives in a highly relationship-driven way to a small set of nonprofits in South Texas, especially Corpus Christi and San Antonio, with many repeat grants to the same organizations. Its portfolio points to a strong concern for basic needs and family well-being—food access, refugee support, child protection, counseling, and faith-linked community services—alongside a meaningful interest in children’s health and education. The foundation appears to favor local organizations that provide direct services and long-term support for vulnerable families rather than broad, issue-agnostic philanthropy.
Concentrated giving to a core group of repeat grantees, with multiple awards over time and relatively large individual grants for direct-service nonprofits. The foundation seems to make a mix of anchor gifts and sustained support rather than spreading funds widely.
Notable grantees: Coastal Bend Food Bank, The Center for Refugee Services, CASA of the Coastal Bend, Driscoll Childrens Hospital, Corpus Christi Metro Ministries
