The BEACON (Building Economic Access, Community, Opportunity & Networks) Fund drives community development in historically disinvested neighborhoods. This grant cycle builds on the work accomplished by North Texas Community Foundation’s (NTCF) grantees, community leaders, and advisory committee members, whose valuable insights guide our work. The BEACON Fund reflects the priorities identified by those working directly in our communities, ensuring that resources are aligned to
meet the most pressing needs. By providing operational support to organizations focused on housing, jobs, education, healthcare, and other essential elements required for a thriving community, BEACON aims to illuminate the path for nonprofits to create equitable, community-driven change.

Certain communities face disproportionate challenges due to systemic inequities. Factors such as wage disparities, rising housing costs, limited access to quality healthcare, and inadequate transportation infrastructure create barriers to economic mobility and overall well-being.

Applications are being accepted until April 23rd.
