About Texas A&M Foundation
The Texas A&M Foundation’s recent giving is dominated by very large, repeated transfers to Texas A&M University in College Station, with departmental support and scholarships appearing at the top of the list year after year. In 2025, the foundation gave $79,084,020 for departmental support and $37,601,945 for scholarships and fellowships. In 2024, those same categories again ranked first and second, led by $82,739,198 for departmental support and $44,467,031 for scholarships and fellowships. The pattern shows a funder centered on the university’s core academic mission rather than a broad portfolio of external charities. Support also extends to faculty, research, and university programs. One of the larger purpose-specific grants in the record was $17,467,599 in 2024 for research and education in ag and arts, indicating a focus that reaches beyond general operating support into named academic fields. Another major line of giving is faculty support, which appears in multiple years and at eight-figure levels. Across the latest grants shown, the foundation’s role is to underwrite institutional capacity, student aid, and academic development for the university it serves.
What Texas A&M Foundation Funds
Departmental operating support is the clearest theme in the recent record. Texas A&M Foundation gave $82,739,198 in 2024 to Texas A&M University for departmental support, then $79,084,020 in 2025 for the same purpose. Scholarships and fellowships are another major area, with $44,467,031 in 2024 and $37,601,945 in 2025 going to Texas A&M University. The foundation also backs faculty recruitment and retention through faculty support grants, including $12,626,964 in 2024 and $11,108,530 in 2025. Beyond that, it funds research and education in ag and arts; one 2024 grant of $17,467,599 was directed to Texas A&M University for that purpose. Smaller institutional support grants round out the portfolio.
How Texas A&M Foundation Gives
The grant size profile is very large: p25 is $7,869,632, median grant size is $15,047,282, and p75 is $42,750,760. The record shows recurring support rather than one-time awards, with Texas A&M University appearing across 2023, 2024, and 2025 in multiple categories. The foundation is a regular funder and does not fund individuals. The recent grants point to institutional, department-level, and faculty support rather than competitive open calls. Grants are concentrated in a single university relationship, with repeated awards in the same program areas over multiple years.
