Welcome to DeBusk Foundation. We have been funding programs for Gifted and Talented scholars for over 20 years. Each summer, hundreds of bright kids get together at host schools to learn Arts, Sciences, Mathematics, Robotics, Leadership, and more. The classes are fun and the teachers are dynamic.

MISSION
The DeBusk Foundation provides grants of financial assistance to gifted students 12 years of age and under. Grants will be limited to the state of Texas and priority will be given to established organizations engaged in education.
Grants will be made to educational organizations only for the purpose of direct enrichment of gifted students. The foundation will not normally consider such items as funding of land and improvements, buses for transportation or teacher training.
Programs seeking funding must have a specific process for identifying gifted students. One criterion that MUST be met is a ranking in the 95% or above on a standardized achievement test, creativity test, or reasoning test. Additional criteria may be used by individual programs.
Funding will be for summer programs only. Gifted students are to attend only one summer program per year.
