Mission
The M.G. and Lillie A. Johnson Foundation, Inc. was established in December of 1958 by Marshall G. and Lillie Appelt Johnson with the original intention to support the creation of a Lutheran hospital in the Texas Medical Center, Houston. Over time, their contributions have significantly supported medical, health, and education projects within Texas, focusing primarily on the Texas Gulf Coast area known as the South Texas Crossroads Area. The Foundation emphasizes grants for medical or allied health purposes and institutions of higher education within these regions.
