About Kenneth Hill Foundation
The Kenneth Hill Foundation concentrates its giving on local health and human-service organizations in Granbury/Hood County, TX — particularly community centers, clinics, and elder services — while also making occasional targeted gifts to international health causes. Grants are typically large and directed to a small set of repeat grantees providing primary care, senior nutrition/aging supports, and community outreach; there is a clear emphasis on sustaining local capacity and service delivery in the foundation's home community.

Funding Style
About Kenneth Hill Foundation
The Kenneth Hill Foundation’s recent giving is defined by large general-support grants to Granbury-area health and human-service organizations, especially Ruths Place of Granbury (Ken Hill Clinic) and Rancho Brazos Community Center of Granbury. Those awards sit alongside repeated support for Mission Granbury, Hood County Committee on Aging, and other local providers that serve children, teens, and older adults. The foundation’s grantmaking is broad within that local service network: healthcare, education, quality of life, and basic needs all appear in its stated programs, and the recent grants show a consistent pattern of flexible funding rather than project-specific awards. Its portfolio also includes a smaller set of grants outside the immediate Hood County service map. Mercy Ships received support in 2023, and the list also includes gifts to organizations such as Save the Children, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, and St. Jude’s Hospital. Even with those nonlocal awards, the center of gravity remains community-based service delivery in Granbury and Hood County, with repeat recipients appearing across multiple years and grant amounts frequently in six figures.
What Kenneth Hill Foundation Funds
Health care is central to the foundation’s grantmaking. In 2025, it gave $450,000 to Ruths Place of Granbury (Ken Hill Clinic) for general support, following a $377,000 grant in 2024 to the same clinic. It also backed Autism Treatment Center in Dallas with $100,000 in 2023, $55,000 in 2024, and $25,000 in 2025. Community and emergency support is another visible theme.

The foundation also gave $100,000 to Salvation Army of Hood County in 2023 and $90,000 to The Salvation Army of Hood County - Scholarship in 2025. Older-adult services appear repeatedly as well. Hood County Committee on Aging (Meals on Wheels) received $150,000 in both 2024 and 2025, after a $125,000 grant in 2023 to Hood County Committee on Aging.
