IdentifierGrantmaker's Description of How Grants are UsedIdentifier
ExplanationThe Houston Parks Board (HPB) solicits gifts and bequests for park acquisitions, additions, and improvements within the city of Houston and the surrounding metropolitan area. From time to time, it transfers land (or funds set aside to purchase land) that it has acquired to the City of Houston or to the Houston Parks Board LGC, a Local Government Corporation that was formed to hold the parks land and improvements of HPB and to collect funds from the City and perhaps federal agencies. During this fiscal year, HPB transferred property to a community association which wanted to add the property to its community holdings but didn't have the means to purchase the property.HPB also acts as an agent for the City of Houston regarding certain funds that it maintains on behalf of the City. One such fund provides scholarships to students. The Houston Parks and Recreation Department's A.S.K. Group determines the scholarship recipients and has HPB write a check directly to the school the student is attending. ASK monitors the initial and ongoing qualification of scholarship recipients, not HPB.Explanation
