Founded by Velena L. McRae as a way to honor her late husband Jesse C. McRae, III and her late grandmother, Vera Peoples Bailey, the JV McRae Foundation is a 501 (3)(c) organization that actively serves the community by providing resources to support education, health, financial, and family stability initiatives. The Foundation provides four annual scholarships and has programming designed to highlight and appreciate educators working in underserved communities throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
