About St David's Foundation
St David's Foundation’s recent giving is anchored by large health access grants to Central Texas providers, with an $11,044,000 award to Lone Star Circle of Care and a $6,668,344 grant to Peoples Community Clinic Inc. That pattern matches its stated aim to advance health equity in Central Texas through investment and action. The foundation’s portfolio centers on access to care, economic stability, and community-driven change, and its recent grant list shows those priorities translated into support for clinics, housing-related services, food assistance, education supports, and local health systems. Grantmaking also reaches organizations that connect health access with daily stability. Foundation Communities received multiple large awards, including $6,080,718 in 2024 and $5,836,916 in 2025, while other sizable grants supported Lifeworks, The Safe Alliance, and Community Health Centers of South Central Texas Inc. The scale of the giving suggests sustained support for organizations serving uninsured or underinsured people, low-income populations, Medicaid-eligible people, and rural communities. Across the recent grants, the foundation’s work is consistently tied to removing barriers to care and strengthening the local systems that shape health outcomes.
What St David's Foundation Funds
Access to care is the clearest throughline in the recent grants. St David's Foundation gave $11,044,000 to Lone Star Circle of Care for a health access grant, and $6,668,344 to Peoples Community Clinic Inc for the same purpose. It also supported Barrio Comprehensive Family Health Care Center Inc with $1,866,572, reinforcing a clinic-based approach. The foundation also backs organizations that address broader conditions affecting health. Foundation Communities received $6,080,718, and the organization’s repeated support points to the connection between affordable housing and health access. In community support, the foundation awarded $3,485,289 to The Safe Alliance and $3,075,600 to Bastrop County Emergency Food Pantry Inc, showing attention to safety and basic needs alongside care delivery. Education and family supports appear as well, including $3,126,637 to Youth and Family Alliance.
How St David's Foundation Gives
Typical grant size falls at a p25 of $81,350, a median of $202,446, and a p75 of $554,080, but the recent awards also include multimillion-dollar health access grants. The pattern suggests a mix of smaller programmatic awards and a set of much larger operating-scale commitments. Recipients recur across years: Lone Star Circle of Care, Peoples Community Clinic, Foundation Communities, Community Health Centers of South Central Texas Inc, United Way for Greater Austin, Communities in Schools of Central Texas, and Austin Community Foundation all appear more than once. St David's Foundation is a regular funder, makes program-related investments, and funds individuals: false.
