About the Arlington Tomorrow Foundation
The Arlington Tomorrow Foundation was incorporated by the State of
Texas in 2007 to oversee an endowment fund created from natural gas
revenue realized on city-owned property. Ninety percent of gas well
lease bonus earnings and 50 percent of all royalties earned from the
wells go into a permanent endowment fund. The interest earnings from
this fund are distributed through community grants.
To date, the Arlington Tomorrow Foundation has awarded $1,091,495 to
support Arlington area programs that benefit the community. Learn
