The Tyler Cowboy Foundation concentrates its giving on providing unrestricted, general operating support to a very small set of beneficiary organizations, including at least one family charitable fund and a faith‑oriented program partner. Its grants are sizable relative to the total portfolio and appear directed at sustaining organizational capacity rather than specific program projects. The foundation gives repeatedly to the same recipients, suggesting long‑term relationships with grantees.
Concentrated and relationship-driven: few (4) total grants, two repeat grantees, large shares of total giving to each recipient, and predominantly unrestricted/general operating support.
Notable grantees: THE G&R COOPER FAMILY CHARITABLE, TITUS TWO PARTNERSHIP INC
Tyler Cowboy Foundation’s recent giving is anchored by repeated general operating support to a small group of organizations, including The G&R Cooper Family Charitable and Titus Two Partnership Inc. The largest grant in the file went to The G&R Cooper Family Charitable in 2023 for $68,500, followed by a $55,000 grant in 2024 to the same recipient. That pattern points to a funder that favors sustained support rather than one-time project grants. Across the file, the foundation’s awards are described as general operating or unrestricted support, which places emphasis on organizational capacity and day-to-day stability. The grant list also shows recurring relationships with churches, family charitable funds, and service-oriented nonprofits. Clayton United Methodist Church received grants in both 2023 and 2024, while Titus Two Partnership Inc also appears in consecutive years at $30,000 each year. Other recipients include faith-linked and community-serving organizations such as Two Sparrows Village Inc, Big Oak Ranch Inc, and Make a Wish Foundation of Alabama Inc. The portfolio is small and relationship-based, with several recipients returning across years rather than a broad spread of one-off awards.
Tyler Cowboy Foundation’s support is centered on organizational infrastructure and non-program-specific funding. In faith-based work, it gave $30,000 in 2023 and $30,000 in 2024 to Titus Two Partnership Inc in Panama City, Florida for general operating support. It also awarded $15,000 in 2024 and $10,000 in 2023 to Clayton United Methodist Church in Clayton, Alabama, both listed as general operating grants. The foundation also backs community and family-service groups. Two Sparrows Village Inc in Atlanta, Georgia received $15,000 in 2023 and $15,000 in 2024. Big Oak Ranch Inc in Springville, Alabama was granted $15,000 in 2023 and $5,000 in 2024. Smaller awards in the file include Make a Wish Foundation of Alabama Inc in Birmingham, Baldwin County Sheriffs Office Foundation in Bay Minette, and Wounded Warrior Project in Jacksonville.
The median grant size is $15,000, with the 25th percentile at $5,000 and the 75th percentile also at $15,000, showing a tight cluster around mid-sized awards. The file also includes a few larger exceptions, but the overall pattern is consistent with a compact, repeat-recipients portfolio rather than broad dispersal. Recipients appear across multiple years, including several organizations that received grants in both 2023 and 2024. The foundation gives only to organizations, not individuals, and it makes no program-related investments. The grant descriptions are consistently framed as general operating or unrestricted support, which suggests a preference for core expenses over restricted project funding.
