Make a Difference in Texas
The Nature Conservancy has protected land and water in Texas since 1964. To date, we’ve conserved nearly one million acres of land and more than 200 miles of rivers and streams. With your support, we can continue working to safeguard the state’s natural landscapes, preserve the Gulf of Mexico and improve the resilience of Texas cities for future generations to enjoy.

Nature's Comebacks
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Endangered Species Act. To commemorate this landmark legislation, we’re celebrating 50 underdog species that are bouncing back from low numbers, thanks to conservation efforts by TNC and partners. Check out these species from across the nation, like the Attwater's prairie chicken in Texas.
