Two things this page does not do
It does not tell you whether you are eligible. A program appearing here means your kind of organization may apply, not that you qualify. Eligibility is the question that decides whether an application is worth the week it costs, and it is what Quillify answers.
It is not everything. These are the programs most likely to matter to Texas, not a complete index of public funding.
Using this in your newsletter
Link this page and it stays current on its own. It will not go out of date between issues, and the list changes as programs open and close, so the same link is worth sending every month.
Something open locally that is not on this list? Send it over and it goes on the page under your name, so the one link still covers everything instead of needing a separate note. It comes down on its own when it closes.
Nothing to log into, nothing to install, and no cost.
