About Trusted World Foundation
Trusted World Foundation Inc directs most of its grantmaking into living assistance and in-kind support for organizations serving people in North Texas. The largest recent award in the data was $701,600 to Nexus Recovery Center Inc in Dallas, followed by $642,642 to New Hope Compassion, also in Dallas. Those grants sit within a broader pattern of repeated support for local agencies, schools, and public-safety partners that distribute clothing, food, and personal care items at no cost. The foundation’s published programs show that this is not conventional cash grantmaking alone: it operates resource-distribution systems for schools, police departments, nonprofits, shelters, and case-management agencies, with ordering and partner access built into its model. Recent awards also reached Dallas-area organizations such as Catholic Charities Dallas, The Bridge Homeless Recovery, and Citysquare, as well as school districts including Plano ISD, Garland ISD, and Richardson ISD. The result is a funder centered on immediate basic needs, organizational support, and local delivery channels rather than broad, national philanthropy.
What Trusted World Foundation Funds
A clear share of Trusted World Foundation Inc’s recent grants supports emergency and stabilizing services for people facing housing or other financial crises. For example, it gave $355,114 to The Bridge Homeless Recovery in 2025 and $413,508 to New Hope Compassion in 2025, both in Dallas. Education partners also appear prominently: Plano ISD received $290,167 in 2025, while Garland ISD received $247,890 in 2025 and Richardson ISD received $235,066 in 2025. The foundation also funds refugee and recovery-oriented services, including $227,939 to Refugee Services of Texas in 2024 and 2023. Alongside those grants, its program descriptions emphasize clothing, food, and personal care items for schools, police departments, nonprofits, and shelters across North Texas.
How Trusted World Foundation Gives
Typical grants cluster at a modest-to-mid range, with a p25 of $10,513, median of $22,254, and p75 of $70,542. The recent-grants list shows repeated awards to the same recipients across multiple years, including The Bridge Homeless Recovery, Nexus Recovery Center Inc, Plano ISD, Refugee Services of Texas, Homeward Bound, and American Red Cross. That pattern suggests ongoing support rather than one-time awards for several recipients. The foundation is not an individual-assistance funder in the private-philanthropy sense; it is a foundation that primarily channels resources through partner organizations and in-kind service programs. Unsolicited access appears in some partner-resource programs, while others are limited to approved partners.
