Kappa Kappa Gamma Charitable Foundation of Houston

Our Mission

The primary purpose of the Kappa Kappa Gamma Charitable Foundation of Houston is to attract and generate financial support for distribution to charitable organizations which meet the established philanthropic guidelines.


Our Philanthropic Focus

The Foundation’s philanthropic focus is early-childhood education and development, with a specific preference for programs that address the needs of children in the first six years of life and living in low-income households. We are honored to fund Houston area 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organizations that provide high-quality early-childhood education and development programs that contribute to well-educated and healthy children, strong families and a vibrant Houston community.

Since 1980, the Kappa Kappa Gamma Charitable Foundation of Houston, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, has contributed millions of dollars to local charities in the greater Houston area. The recipients utilize the donations for programs, facilities, equipment, and scholarships for thousands.

Our board is honored to be part of a wonderful tradition of giving back to the Houston community, and we are grateful for the generosity of our donors. We work together to fulfill our mission to attract and generate financial support for distribution to charitable organizations that meet the established philanthropic guidelines.

In recent years, grant requests have increased dramatically to meet the significant needs in our local community, and grants awarded have steadily increased. These grants fulfill the mission of the foundation “to attract and generate financial support for distribution to charitable organizations that meet established philanthropic guidelines.”

This year we provided grants to 25 outstanding local non-profit organizations.

Funds for the charitable grants are raised through the 2026 Kappa Holiday Luncheon, our new 2027 A Key To Design Event, and the philanthropic gifts of our individual members.
