On February 26, 2026, TEXAS YES proudly awarded 6 grants totaling $20,000 to schools and youth-focused organizations statewide. Presented by Thomas J. Henry, the TEXAS YES Grant program advances S.T.E.M., innovation, and the continued development of impactful educational programs.
These grants strengthen classrooms and expand opportunity by helping schools modernize equipment, enhance hands-on learning, and bring new ideas to life. From technology upgrades to creative program enhancements, each award reflects a commitment to supporting educators as they meet the evolving needs of their students.
