GEORGETOWN, Texas - eTradeWire -- Georgetown, Texas — Seeds of Strength, Georgetown's women's giving circle committed to strengthening the community through collective philanthropy, proudly announces The Williamson Museum as the recipient of the 2025 Founders Grant.

This marks the second consecutive year the organization has awarded this special $5,000 grant, created to honor Seeds of Strength's founding members and their lasting commitment to impact, stewardship and community leadership. The Founders Grant recognizes a nonprofit whose mission aligns closely with Seeds of Strength's core values and whose work demonstrates long-term, sustainable benefit to the people of Williamson County.

This year's grant will allow The Williamson Museum to significantly expand and enhance its acclaimed educational Trunk Program, which currently serves more than 19,000 Central Texas students each year. With the funding, the Museum's education team will add four new trunk topics: Native Americans of Williamson County, Women's History, Black History, and a new Bat Trunk. Funds will also help the nonprofit make essential improvements to existing materials and program delivery.
