Texas Mutual Insurance Company, one of the state’s leading providers of workers’ compensation insurance, recently announced the recipients in the second round of its 2024 request for proposal initiative. The company has awarded more than $4.5 million to nearly 70 organizations across the state to support their efforts in workforce development and safety training, including the Waco Chamber Community Development Foundation (WCCDF). This grant is part of Texas Mutual’s 2024 commitment of $8 million in grant funding to nonprofit organizations in two categories—generational learning for working families, and workforce development and safety training.
“We’re thrilled to receive this expanded funding,” said Jacob Hogan, VP of Public Policy and Chamber Foundation. “WCCDF is committed to creating strong connectivity and pathways to in-demand jobs for Greater Waco. With this grant, we will be able to expand our existing programming, including student internships and teacher externships.”
WCCDF is a non-profit with the mission of creating the workforce and leaders of tomorrow.
