Application Form
1. All donation requests must be submitted through our online application system.
2. Organizations must have a valid non-profit status.
3. Requests need to be received a minimum of 8 weeks before events, programs, activities, initiatives or projects begin.
4. Donation requests must include all the information requested on the application.
5. All organizations must re-apply for funds every year within our 8 week policy to be considered for funding - even if we have a long history of funding the organization.
6. When an organization requests an in-kind donation, such as one of our trucks, the same eight week policy rule applies.
7. If a store receives a request that they are not able to provide funds for, they will send the organization to the on-line application site.
8. If an organization submits a request less than eight weeks in advance, it is not likely that they will receive funding.
9. Organizations may not ask more than one H-E-B facility for a donation for a particular event (for example, sending a request to multiple H-E-B stores).
10. Funding approvals will be given to the non-profit through a written or verbal agreement.

Our Community Investment Program contributes to nonprofit organizations that operate within the immediate H-E-B service area. Depending on the need we may contribute in-kind product, volunteers, or monetary funding towards activities, projects, and causes that make a visible and possible difference. Our Community Investment Program primarily supports organizations focused on arts and humanities, disaster relief, diversity and inclusion, education and literacy, environmental and sustainability, health and wellness, hunger relief, military and veteran support, and general social services.
