Waco Foundation is committed to strengthening the organizations and groups that implement our community’s innovative ideas and major services.
The Foundation invests in capacity building because we believe organizations that have taken certain steps in planning their work have the best chance of ultimately improving our community’s quality of life, and we recognize that people enter nonprofit work at different points of readiness and preparation.
Through our Capacity Building Program we help the staff and boards of McLennan County nonprofits gain access to planning, quality trainings and other resources to help strengthen their organization’s ability to conduct mission work.
Family Abuse Center has greatly benefitted from capacity building offered through Waco Foundation. These trainings have provided immeasurable support for the Board of Directors as well as the development department for the organization."
