Our Leadership

Al and Virginia Meadows were devoted to their family. They entrusted the Foundation’s governance to them and public-spirited advisors in order to share their joy of giving. This opportunity and responsibility have been passed down through four generations and across seven branches of the Meadows family.

They all share a commitment to using the Foundation’s resources to benefit the people of Texas.
