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.

​

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 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.

In recent years, grant requests have increased dramatically to meet the significant needs in our local community, and grants awarded have steadily increased. In 2025, we provided $449,150 in grant funding to 25 outstanding local non-profit organizations. Funds for the charitable grants are raised through the 2026 Kappa Holiday Luncheon, our new 2026 Key To Design: A Tablescape Event, and the philanthropic gifts of our individual members.​
