Programs

The Texas Holocaust, Genocide, and Antisemitism Advisory Commission (THGAAC) administers the THGAAC Education Grant program. This grant is open to all nonprofit organizations headquartered in the State of Texas.

Organizations may apply for up to $50,000.00 per project and grant awards require a 1:1 match (in-kind matches are permitted). Grant funds are paid on a reimbursable basis (meaning organizations cannot receive funds up front, but only as reimbursements for incurred costs). The THGAAC regularly assists educational institutions, museums, and other local non-profits throughout the entire state with this grant program.

Volunteering

Volunteer Opportunities with the THGAAC
The Texas Holocaust, Genocide, and Antisemitism Advisory Commission (THGAAC) continuously seeks to grow a volunteer network to enhance public awareness of the fight against antisemitism and the continuing significance of the Holocaust and other genocides. Those interested in volunteering with the THGAAC can select from three categories: Grant Scoring Committee, Speakers Bureau, and Special Events. Those interested can submit a volunteer application here. (Applicants interested in volunteering with the THGAAC Speakers Bureau will need to provide contact information for two references.)

Press requests and questions from the media regarding information, projects, and interview opportunities should be directed to the Regional Coordinator & Communications Specialist.
