The Frank W & Sue Mayborn Foundation concentrates on large, local capital projects that strengthen community infrastructure in Temple and Bell County, Texas. Over the reported period they funded clinic and shelter construction/expansion and a university museum renovation, indicating a preference for bricks-and-mortar investments that serve health, cultural, and family services. Grants are sizable and targeted to a small number of regional institutions, often supporting second-phase or renovation capital needs.
The Frank W & Sue Mayborn Foundation shows a clear preference for capital projects that change what local institutions can physically do: a $1,000,000 grant to Temple Community Clinic for new clinic construction, followed by another $1,000,000 grant to Baylor University for renovation of the Mayborn Museum. Those grants sit alongside a $900,000 award to Family Promise of Bell County for construction of a second phase, pointing to a pattern of funding expansion, renovation, and capacity-building rather than short-term program support alone. The foundation’s recent giving also reaches beyond health and shelter into cultural and family-serving institutions in Central Texas. Temple Children’s Museum, the Salvation Army in Temple, Amy’s House Transplant Recipients International Org Central Texas Chapter, Ronald McDonald House, and the Temple Education Foundation all appear in the recent grants list. Across those awards, the foundation supports local organizations that serve patients, children, students, and families, often through facilities, general purposes, or event-related support. The overall picture is of a regional funder backing tangible projects with visible community use.
Health-related capital work is a central theme. In 2025, the foundation gave $40,000 to Advent Health Foundation for fetal heart monitors, and it also supported Body of Christ Community Clinic in Belton with $2,000 in both 2024 and 2025 for general fund support. Family services are another recurring area: Family Promise of Bell County received $900,000 for construction of a second phase, while Our Lady of the Angels Maternity Shelter received $15,000 for its annual benefit banquet. Educational and youth-serving organizations also appear repeatedly. Temple Education Foundation received $10,000 in 2023, $10,000 in 2024, and $5,000 in 2025 for general fund support, and Ralph Wilson Youth Clubs of Temple Inc received $50,000 in 2025 for general purposes. The foundation also backed a scholarship program through the Fort Hood Area Military Family Member Scholarship Fund.
Grant sizes are clustered toward modest awards, with p25 at $1,500, a median of $5,000, and p75 at $15,000, even as a few capital grants reach seven figures. The recent record shows repeat support for multiple recipients across years, including Temple Community Clinic, Temple Children’s Museum, Temple Education Foundation, Christian Farms - Treehouse, Body of Christ Community Clinic, Freedom of Information Foundation of Texas, and the Fort Hood Area Military Family Member Scholarship Fund. That pattern suggests recurring relationships rather than one-off gifts. The foundation is a private family foundation and funds individuals.
