United Way mobilizes communities to action so all in the Brazos Valley can thrive.
United Way of the Brazos Valley’s grantmaking is centered on local service delivery in Bryan, College Station, and the surrounding Brazos Valley, with repeated support for health access, emergency assistance, and family stability. Across the recent grants list, Health for All, Scottys House, and the Sexual Assault Resource Ctr appear as recurring recipients, which points to ongoing operating support for organizations serving residents in need. The foundation’s giving also reaches food security, transportation, and early childhood support through grants to Brazos Valley Food Bank, Ride2Health-related work, and early-learning providers. This pattern fits its stated emphasis on community health, preventive and primary care, substance abuse screening and referral, youth development, financial stability and education, basic needs, transportation services, and early literacy. The foundation also serves as a local board for emergency food and shelter efforts, linking its grantmaking to coordinated response for households facing economic emergencies. Its recent awards are concentrated among nonprofits that operate in the Brazos Valley and address immediate service needs alongside longer-term stability.
In health access work, United Way of the Brazos Valley gave $42,474 in 2025 to Health for All in Bryan for local health services, and $22,569 in 2025 to BV Rehabiltation Center in Bryan. Those awards align with the foundation’s focus on community health, preventive and primary care, and substance abuse screening and referral. Family support also shows up in grants to Brazos Maternal & Child Healt in Bryan, including $20,058 in 2025, pointing to maternal and child health as a funded need. Basic-needs work is another visible lane: the foundation gave $18,981 in 2025 to Brazos Valley Food Bank in Bryan and $15,000 in 2025 to Catholic Charities in Bryan. Youth-serving nonprofits are present as well, including $15,228 in 2025 to Boys & Girls Club of the BV in Bryan.
Typical awards are in the five-figure range, with a p25 of $10,000, a median of $12,583, and a p75 of $16,190. The recent grants list shows repeat support to the same organizations across 2023, 2024, and 2025, including Health for All, Scottys House, Sexual Assault Resource Ctr, Brazos Maternal & Child Healt, and Twin City Mission. That pattern suggests an ongoing relationship with grantees rather than isolated one-off gifts. The foundation is a local funder, and its active programs include both unsolicited opportunities such as SECC, Early Literacy Program, Ride2Health, and 2-1-1 Texas access, and invitation-based programs such as Community Impact Grants and EFSP. It also operates as a local board for federally funded emergency food and shelter work.
