The Wood Family Foundation is dedicated to supporting community causes that benefit West Texans for generations. Since its inception, the Foundation has reinvested over $18 million into the community, with a primary focus on education and healthcare. This commitment aims to improve the lives of men, women, and children, helping families and the city of Odessa to grow and prosper. The foundation's mission is deeply rooted in fostering long-term community well-being through strategic funding. The Foundation's giving is specifically concentrated on Odessa, Texas, and the surrounding counties of the Permian Basin. This geographical focus ensures that grants directly impact the local community where the foundation aims to make a significant difference. Target beneficiaries include organizations that are exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3), particularly those providing educational and medical benefits to the citizens of this defined area. The impact goal is to uplift the community through targeted support in these critical sectors. Priorities for grant applications include major capital campaigns seeking $1 million or more, provided approximately half of the needed funds have already been raised. Requests from universities or colleges must be approved and submitted through their development offices. The Foundation generally limits its giving to educational and medical grants. It's important to note that the Foundation does not make loans or grants to individuals and rarely undertakes sole support of programs, encouraging applicants to seek funding from various sources. The expected outcomes of the grants are improved educational opportunities and enhanced healthcare services for the citizens of Odessa and the Permian Basin. While specific measurable results are not explicitly detailed in the provided text, the foundation's history of reinvesting over $18 million underscores its commitment to tangible community improvement. The strategic priorities revolve around supporting established organizations with clear proposals that align with the foundation's core objectives in education and healthcare. The underlying theory of change is that by investing in these fundamental areas, the foundation can foster long-term prosperity and well-being within the West Texas community.
