This small family foundation concentrates on direct service organizations in Texas—particularly substance use recovery, youth development, and senior nutrition—preferring to fund operating support rather than capital projects. Their grants are sizable relative to the foundation's scale and include repeat support for at least one recovery provider, indicating a focus on sustaining core operations for trusted local partners.
Concentrated, modest number of mid-size operating grants with repeat funding to established local nonprofits; emphasis on sustaining ongoing program delivery rather than many small one-off gifts.
Dick Albert & Mary Charitable Tr stands out for repeated general operating support to Victoria, Texas nonprofits working in recovery, youth services, and basic needs. In the recent grant list, Billy T Cattan Recovery Outreach Inc received $25,000 in 2023 and another $25,000 in 2024, while Boys Girls Clubs of Victoria Inc also received $25,000 in 2024 and $25,000 in 2025. That repeated pattern shows a funder that backs organizations over time rather than making one-off awards. The foundation’s giving also reaches Meals on Wheels South Texas, which received $17,500 in 2024 and $23,000 in 2025, along with other local service providers such as Golden Crescent Court Appointed Special Advocates Inc, Foster Parents of Victoria, Victoria Christian Assistance Ministry, and Midcoast Family Services. The grant purposes are consistently framed as general operating or operating support, pointing to an emphasis on sustaining day-to-day service delivery. Although the foundation’s annual grants are modest in absolute terms, the individual awards are substantial relative to its size, and the roster of recipients suggests a practical, community-based approach centered on operating stability for trusted organizations.
Substance use recovery is one clear theme in the foundation’s giving. Billy T Cattan Recovery Outreach Inc, based in Victoria, received $25,000 in 2023 and $25,000 in 2024 for general operating support. Youth development is another recurring area. Boys Girls Clubs of Victoria Inc was awarded $15,000 in 2023, $25,000 in 2024, and $25,000 in 2025, all as operating support. The foundation also supported Teens Grounded Inc with $7,000 in 2023, $7,000 in 2024, and $10,000 in 2025. Basic-needs and family-support work appears in grants to Meals on Wheels South Texas, which received $17,500 in 2024 and $23,000 in 2025, and to Foster Parents of Victoria, which received $10,000 in 2023 and 2024 and $15,000 in 2025. These awards point to support for food access, family services, and local safety-net organizations.
Typical awards cluster in the low five figures: p25 is $5,000, the median is $10,000, and p75 is $13,500. The recent list also shows a smaller set of $15,000 to $25,000 grants, suggesting the foundation uses larger operating awards for select partners while still making many standard-sized contributions. The pattern is recurring rather than one-time: several organizations appear across multiple years, including Boys Girls Clubs of Victoria Inc, Billy T Cattan Recovery Outreach Inc, Meals on Wheels South Texas, Foster Parents of Victoria, and Teens Grounded Inc. The funder does not make grants to individuals and is not shown making program-related investments.
