Overview
Mission
The organization is committed to advancing accurate, comprehensive, and inclusive historical accounts and fostering integrity in public discussion about Texas's past and present. It is committed to scholarly research. It seeks to create a platform for respectful discussions, where members can exchange ideas, challenge perspectives, and enhance their knowledge of Texas history. The organization seeks to provide historical context for contemporary issues, thereby helping individuals understand the relevance of historical events in shaping the present. It promotes inclusivity by acknowledging and honoring the diverse cultures and ideas that have shaped Texas history.
What it reported doing in 2025
During 2025, the alliance for Texas history (atxh.org) made great strides into becoming a more complete membership organization for those interested in Texas history. Our membership grew from 592 to 659 during the year. We also held our first full annual meeting in san marcos with almost 400 attendees. A small group of history students were provided with stipends to attend. Student participants and presenters continues to be a focus for the alliance.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work.
