National Guard Who is the
Texas National Guard Foundation?
The Texas National Guard Foundation, a non-profit organization with 501©3 status, is dedicated to fostering awareness, understanding, recognition, and appreciation among the private sector and the general public. This is for the crucial roles and responsibilities that the members of the Texas Military Department undertake in support of the United States’ National Defense Component.
The foundation’s mission is to raise and distribute funds to supplement and support the financing of National Guard events, professional education, educational scholarships, and activities that benefit military service members in Texas, as sanctioned by the Foundation. In addition, the Foundation extends its support to Soldiers and Airmen during natural disasters and missions both domestically and abroad. It also provides educational scholarships and aids in professional development for members of the Texas National Guard.
By sponsoring National Guard conferences, forums, research, and meetings, the foundation aims to promote the professional growth of the Texas Military Department members. It also seeks to educate the general public about the role and responsibilities of the Texas Military Department.
