The Travis Park United Methodist Church Foundation was established with the purpose to create and endow a lasting impact on the church’s ministry and mission.
The Foundation Board, elected by church members, manages funds by investing in the Texas Methodist Foundation and other socially responsible organizations. Designated earnings are distributed annually.
In 2025, the Foundation stood in the gap, providing nearly 50% of the Church’s revenue so that essential ministry could thrive as the congregation grows and develops.
Have you thought about remembering Travis Park UMC in your estate?
No gift is too small. Because all gifts are pooled in the endowment, they have a cumulative effect, making every gift significant.
