JUST IN: Bank Of America Invests $1.3M+ In 43 North Texas Non-Profits For Economic Opportunity And Social Progress

Jul 29, 2022 9:30 AM by Jeanne Prejean

There’s nothing better than ending the last week of July with a seven-figure show of philanthropy. OK, so maybe it would be nice if there was a cold front accompanied with a nice rain shower. But Bank of America is stepping in with $1,318,800 for 43 North Texas non-profits with the goal of advancing long-term economic success.

The timing of the grants is perfectly planned with the U.S. Census reporting “no metro area in the country grew more last year than Dallas-Fort Worth, adding almost 100,000 new residents.” Along with these new neighbors came “increasing demands on education, housing and other resources, decreasing access and affordability.”

Thus, the grants are targeted to help shore up access to immediate and basic needs like food, shelter, health resources and housing to provide environments in which the workforce and lifestyles will thrive.

As Bank of America Dallas President Jennifer Chandler explained, “Investing in partnerships with non-profit organizations addressing issues like affordable housing and access to healthcare is part of our approach to driving economic opportunity and social progress in North Texas.”

But now let’s get down to the list of the North Texas non-profits that are celebrating this show of support. The following charities that benefited from the $1.3M+ are:
