The Meredith Foundation has awarded grants to 14 Mineola organizations totaling $1,031,897.

The following organizations have been approved for grants for 2021.

Addie McFarland Foundation

City of Mineola

Grace Community Healthcare

Lake Country Playhouse/Select Theater

Mineola Civic Center

Mineola ISD

Mineola ISD Education Foundation

Mineola Memorial Library

Mineola League of the Arts

Last year the same 14 organizations received grants totaling $1,475,378.

To qualify for a grant, an organization must be a 501(c)(3) and must benefit the people of Mineola within the Mineola Independent School District. The one exception to a beneficiary being located in MISD is the Methodist Children’s Home in Waco. The home was of special interest to Harry W. Meredith, the foundation’s founder.

Since the Meredith Foundation was created and a board organized in July 1958, the trust has invested $35 million in the community that Meredith loved.
