Dear Alliance Friends and TCMS Members,

As fall settles into Texas, we are excited to launch the 2025-2026 TCMA Foundation Annual Fund Drive. For over a century, the Foundation has partnered with local nonprofits providing essential medical care, education, and supplies that strengthen the health of the greater Austin community.
Your donations make a direct impact – funding safety-net care for adults and children, mental health services, elder and specialty care, and outreach for the homeless and refugee populations.
You also help support new and emerging health-focused nonprofits serving Austin’s most vulnerable residents.
This year, we received 17 grant applications requesting over $104,000 in support. The need across our community continues to grow, and we invite you to join us in Bridging the Gap to a Healthier Austin.
Every gift matters and directly supports these vital grants. We hope you’ll consider a suggested donation of $250 or more. Please donate using the button below.

Recognized giving levels include:
- Sustainer: $1,500+
- Champion: $1,000 - $1,499
- Hero: $500 - $999
- Ambassador: $250 - $499
- Contributor: $100 - $249
The TCMAF continues to be a volunteer-led organization, which ensures 99% of your gift goes directly to local nonprofits, and all donations are tax-deductible.

Donors will be recognized on the TCMAF website, the TCMA Vital Signs newsletter, and the TCMS Journal, and celebrated at the 2026 Party with Purpose Gala and 2026 Grants Awards Dinner.
 

Together, we are Framing the Future of a Healthier Austin – thank you for your partnership and generosity.

 

With appreciation,
