The Hogg Foundation is pleased to announce Abdulla Al Kafy, a doctoral candidate in the Department of Geography and the Environment at The University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin), as the 2026 recipient of the Moore Fellowship.
The Hogg Foundation, along with two partner foundations, has awarded $6.5 million in grant funding over five years to 11 organizations to improve mental health, resilience, and well-being in rural and rural border communities. The Strengthening the Mental Health of Rural and Rural Border Communities initiative will build on community strengths and foster community-driven solutions to create, support, celebrate, and promote mental well-being.
A growth mindset is the belief that skills and abilities can be improved and that developing these is the purpose of your actions.
As we move forward, the foundation will continue to show up in communities with the spirit of collaboration and listening to learn.

When it comes to supporting rural communities, especially around mental health, success often starts not with answers, but with questions—and a deep commitment to listening.
