Giving guidelines
Applications for TI grants are currently accepted online. Unsolicited charitable funding is reserved for 501(c)(3) non-profits, primarily in the Dallas area, that support or promote any of our giving initiatives. TI and the TI Foundation focus giving in key areas important to our company and our communities:
| 1. |
Education. Increase the number of U.S. high school graduates who are math- and science-capable with (for example) algebra-based initiatives for eighth-grade students and programs reaching minority and female students. |
| 2. |
Arts and culture. Support arts and cultural institutions that will attract and retain employees and boost the economic growth of the communities in which we operate. |
| 3. |
Community investment. Enrich civic, business, and health and human services programs that meet the greatest community needs. This includes:
- Capital or civic campaigns. We consider supporting such campaigns based on community and economic impact.
- Health and human services. We primarily support such services through the TI Foundation's annual United Way donations. Beyond United Way, we also provide limited support to organizations meeting our greatest community needs.
- Memberships. We seek memberships based on our business priorities and the requesting organization's dedication to community improvement.
