We would like to take the time to celebrate two transformative ministries in Rio Texas. Both of these ministries have received support and recognition from the Texas Methodist Foundation.

Impacto

Texas Methodist Foundation has awarded Iniciativa de Impacto Comunitario (Impacto) with a TMF Impact Investment for Racial Justice award. This award invests resources into organizations that are actively working to transform and support communities of color. Check out the video below and their website to learn more about Impacto.

Iniciativa de Impacto Communitario is changing their community in west San Antonio. Learn how they are doing this here.

 

FUMC McAllen

Feeding families is something FUMC McAllen has always worked to do, but when COVID-19 hit, a TMF grant allowed them to go from serving 40-50 families a month to serving almost 800 families a month. To learn more about the work FUMC McAllen is doing, check out the video below.

When faced with the pandemic and a hurricane, FUMC McAllen applied for a TMF COVID-19 Response and Recovery Grant to exponentially expand their food pantry outreach to those most in need.
