The coalition works to reduce preventable disease by advancing effective public policies that promote a safe and healthy environment and healthy behaviors for all Texans.
Texas Medical Association’s giving is anchored by support for its own affiliated organizations, with the largest recent grants going to the Texas Medical Association Foundation and the Texas Medical Association Special Funds Foundation. That pattern points to a funder that uses grant dollars to sustain physician-led infrastructure, public health work, and association programs rather than outside operating charities broadly. Recent awards also show support for the Texas Medical Association Alliance and the Texas Medical Association Library, indicating a steady emphasis on internal capacity, educational resources, and member-related programming. Across the recent grant list, the foundation’s support reaches physician advocacy, public health, medical education, and related community-facing efforts. Awards include operating expense support, public health program support, education program support, and fundraising/event sponsorship. The recipient list is concentrated in Austin, with additional grants to organizations in San Antonio and Dallas. The grantmaking pattern suggests a local focus built around Texas medical institutions and physician networks, with recurring support for several grantees across 2023, 2024, and 2025.
Public health is a core area of support. The Texas Medical Association gave $126,347 in 2025 to Texas Medical Association Special Funds Foundation for public health program support, following $131,662 in 2024 and $126,303 in 2023 for the same purpose. That same theme appears in broader Texas health work through a $15,000 grant to Texas Health Institute for public health program support. Medical education and professional development also appear in the record. The foundation awarded $58,000 to Physicians Benevolent Fund for education program support. Physician-community engagement is visible in a $7,500 grant to Austin Black Physicians Association for fundraising event sponsorship. The list also includes local medical-library and student-oriented support, such as $7,000 to Bexar County Medical Library Association and $7,000 to Ut Southwestern Tma Medical Student Chapter, both for public health program support.
Texas Medical Association’s typical grant size sits at $9,375 at the 25th percentile, $73,151 at the median, and $122,776 at the 75th percentile. The recent record includes several repeat awards to the same Texas recipients across multiple years, especially for operating expense support and public health program support. That repeat pattern is clearest in the association’s own foundations and allied entities, which recur from 2023 through 2025. The organization does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments. Its giving is local, and every recent grant in the dataset went to a recipient in Texas. The grant list also shows a mix of general operating support, program-restricted support, and sponsorship-style giving.

Texas Medical Association gives entirely within Texas: 18 of 18 recent grants were to U.S. recipients in the same state as the foundation’s headquarters. Austin is the main recipient city, with multiple grants to Texas Medical Association Foundation, Texas Medical Association Special Funds Foundation, Texas Medical Association Alliance, and Texas Medical Association Library. Beyond Austin, recent awards also went to organizations in San Antonio and Dallas. The geographic pattern is tightly local rather than multi-state or national.
