Serving Military City San Antonio, TX


Auxiliary Welfare Grants



Every year the BAMC Auxiliary accepts proposals for grants submitted from various departments across the hospital and associated clinics. Requested items aim to supplement department/clinic funding to further improve the patient experience at BAMC. The BAMC Auxiliary Grant committee meets each annual cycle after the application period has closed to deliberate and approve proposals that aim to meet the best needs of the BAMC patient community. Annually the Auxiliary awards between $15k and $25k each year to various departments and clinics at Brooke Army Medical Center and it to Outpatient clinics that are part of the BAMC system.

The 2022/23 Grant Cyle is Now Open. See Below.
