100% of Donations, 100% Impact: The Optimist Club of Downtown Houston Donates $10,000 to The Faulk Foundation Scholarship Fund!
At The Faulk Foundation, we believe transparency builds trust — and that every gift should go directly toward making a difference. That’s why 100% of all donations support programs that help students pursue education through scholarships and trade school opportunities.
We’re proud to share that the Optimist Club of Downtown Houston, represented by Richard Gruen, has made a generous $10,000 donation to our scholarship fund. This contribution will directly support students committed to advancing their education and building meaningful careers.
“Gifts like this keep our mission moving forward,” said Carolyn Faulk, Founder of The Faulk Foundation. “When donors see the full impact of their generosity — knowing that every dollar helps someone achieve their dreams — it creates a ripple effect of change.”
The donation will be managed by our Scholarship Committee, led by Brian Teichman, Director of Fundraising, and Jimmie Allen, Director of Trade Schools, Scholarships, ensuring that funds are allocated where they can make the greatest impact.
At The Faulk Foundation, giving is simple, transparent, and impactful. Every donation — no matter the size — goes 100% to the cause.
