Collaboration is encouraged among organizations whose combined efforts will more effectively make a positive difference.
​
The Foundation places considerable emphasis on funding non-profit groups with demonstrated strong organizational governance, internal financial responsibility, and community leadership in the pursuit of their missions. TRHWF requires that the organization/program incorporate a method of evaluating the agency's success in meeting specific goals and outcomes.
​
All grant awards are subject to the vote of the full Board of Directors. It is not the intention of the Foundation to establish an ongoing or permanent grant relationship with grantees.

The Foundation will be accepting Letter's of Intent in June and July this year.
