Since 2013, the McKenna Foundation has committed more than $1 million in seed funding to create the New Braunfels Community Foundation (NBCF). Funding supported the organization in developing a structure for active philanthropy in our community and inspired an asset that will aid and improve the quality of life for our citizens for decades to come. The organization also provides a way for community members to have direct involvement with non-profits by developing funding for causes for which they are passionate.
