A Planned Giving Newsletter from Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation

AUG 2020

In this issue of our Planned Giving newsletter, we celebrate the life and legacy of John Graves and offer ideas on how your passion for conserving the wild things and wild places of Texas can continue even after your lifetime.

And, I hope you enjoy learning about how one donor's experiences and passion for our Texas State Parks has influenced her to make longer term plans to ensure the parks she loves are protected for future generations.

Thank you for your continued support,

The Ripple Effect of Our Shared Conservation Efforts

Just as a single stone creates an ever-extending ripple, the commitment of our donors and the incredible expertise of our many partners have combined with our efforts to create an everlasting effect on the wild things and wild places of Texas.

As the ripple effect of our work touches future generations, so too does it extend to all that we hold dear: our native wildlife, our iconic landscapes, and the waters that bring it all to life.

TPWF’s 2019 annual report celebrates the ripple effect that amplifies our shared conservation efforts, and we invite you to read more about what we have accomplished together.
