Texas History and Texas Proud. The George Foundation

October 1835 marked the events that sparked the Texas Revolution and paved the way for the Republic of Texas.

Eighty years later, TGF continues that legacy, serving and strengthening the people of Fort Bend County.

Congratulations to one of our long-standing nonprofit partners on 35 years! Making a difference in our community every day!

🎉 We’re Turning 35 — and You Can Help Us Celebrate in the Best Way Possible!

You may have seen us buzzing with excitement about our upcoming birthday—35 years of serving East Fort Bend County, 35 years of neighbors helping neighbors, 35 years of standing beside families in need.

Now, as we celebrate this incredible milestone, we’re asking you to help us keep the impact going.

Thanks to a very generous anonymous donor, every dollar you give will be matched—up to $35,000!

That means your $35 becomes $70.
Your $350 becomes $700.
Your $3,500? Doubled to $7,000. 🙌

Your gift helps us:
✅ Distribute groceries to families facing hunger
✅ Keep our trucks running and shelves stocked
✅ Provide birthday bags, school supplies, and emergency aid
✅ Support children, seniors, and everyone in between

No gift is too small. Every donation makes a difference—and right now, it counts double.

Let’s keep the kindness going. Let’s give where we live. 💛
