Welcome

The Zachry Foundation is a private, family foundation in Bexar County, Texas, founded by H. B. Zachry and sustained by family business entities.  It seeks to help people improve their lives and communities by contributing to nonprofit organizations in the fields of the arts and humanities, education, health and social services.

The Zachry Foundation operates on an annual cycle with one open application period, and was created more than four decades ago.

With the exception of institutions of higher education in the state of Texas, proposals will be accepted only from organizations serving the San Antonio/Bexar County area.  Grants to individuals or endowments are not compatible with the Foundation’s guidelines.

The Foundation annually contributes to a diverse number of nonprofit agencies and institutions.  Gift determinations are made by the trustees.  Please download the Guidelines and the appropriate Forms.
