Texas Mutual awards over $4.4 million to 58 Texas nonprofits

Over $4.4M in grants to strengthen Texas workforce

Texas Mutual has awarded more than $4.4 million to 58 nonprofit organizations across the state to help fortify businesses and strengthen the state’s economy. Grants were provided through our Request for Proposal (RFP) initiative, focused on workforce development and safety training. Texas nonprofits were invited to apply between August 11 and September 12. We specifically looked for applicants who are focused on:

  • Training the current and future skilled workforce in safe work practices, especially in industries or occupations at higher risk for workplace accidents
  • Creating strong pathways for in-demand middle-skill jobs
  • Upskilling and reskilling adult learners using earn-and-learn initiatives

After applications were submitted, Texas Mutual conducted an extensive, month-long review process, which included 58 employee volunteers. Reviewers assessed grant applications based on several criteria, including evaluating organizations for their work in safety training, creating job pathways and reskilling adult learners as well as their overall alignment with our commitment to building a stronger, safer, more resilient Texas. Our community affairs team also worked to ensure that funding was distributed across the state and supported underserved communities.

Our workforce development and safety training grant was the second of two RFP initiatives this year. In July, we awarded over $4.5 million to 66 organizations during our generational learning grant cycle to support working families. With both grant initiatives, we’ve awarded over $9 million to support hardworking Texans, communities, businesses and families this year. We’re honored to be partnering with these inspiring nonprofits who are helping ensure meaningful change for Texans and stronger, more resilient communities.
