SECOND WARD FOUNDATION Competitors

BakerRipley is the largest charitable organization in Texas and hosts a network of over 70 service sites that help more than half a million people earn, learn, belong, and be well. We fulfill our mission to bring resources, education, and connection by working with our neighbors side by side. We are committed to being the #1 place to work in Houston. Our values are based on what we believe about people and neighborhoods. That they're good. That they're worth it. Our teams have a few things in common: We're passionate about what we do, we have fun doing it, and we couldn't see ourselves doing anything else.

LISC is one of the country’s largest community development organizations, helping forge vibrant, resilient communities across America. LISC works with residents and partners to close gaps in health, wealth, and opportunity so that people and places can thrive.

United Way of Greater Houston creates opportunities for every person in our community to thrive. At the heart of our work is ensuring the safety net by providing life-saving services to meet our neighbors’ most basic needs, like food and shelter. We are here to support families and individuals when they are going through crises, like job loss, domestic violence and natural disasters. And, we create a pathway to self-sufficiency and success for our neighbors and our community. We provide the tools, resources and education for families to achieve financial stability and independence, for children to succeed in school and in life and for veterans to rebuild their lives after returning from service. Every day of the year, 24-hours a day, we are the voice of help and hope for those who call our 2-1-1 Texas/United Way HELPLINE. And, we bring stakeholders and our community together to address the most pressing needs in our area, improving the quality of life for everyone in our region. We do it all strategically, transparently and with a focus on results. Join us. www.unitedwayhouston.org
