Through collaborative fundraising and partnership building, EarthShare Texas empowers mission-driven members to pursue positive environmental and health impacts across the Lone Star State.Initially founded in 1992, EarthShare Texas began as the Environmental Fund for Texas, an organization structured to further the work of Texas non-profit environmental organizations by representing and raising funds for these groups in workplace giving payroll contribution plans. We have since expanded our efforts beyond the boundaries of traditional workplace giving, empowering our members to pursue their environmental work by shaping resources, partnership development, and best practices. Today, we represent more than 70 of the leading local, state, national and international conservation and environmental organizations working to preserve and protect our natural resources and human health throughout the state. We collaborate with community partners because we believe that the best environmental solutions incorporate diverse voices and collective effort - envisioning a collaborative alliance of environmental organizations, public institutions, and businesses conserving and sustaining a healthy environment for all Texans.
