​About Galveston Bay Foundation

Working to bring together a diverse cross-section of Bay interests, we focus on  to developing creative, inclusive, and forward-thinking solutions to the challenges facing Galveston Bay.

These principles guide our programs, communications, and partnerships. We believe it’s essential that our staff, board, volunteers, supporters, and initiatives reflect the people of Texas and the Galveston Bay region. By doing so, we strengthen our organization’s resilience and ensure our ability to protect and enhance Galveston Bay for generations to come.

We envision a future Galveston Bay that is brimming with vitality, connected to people, and contributing to the community in every possible way.

Galveston Bay Foundation: Standing Up for the Bay, Every Day

Our connection to Galveston Bay runs deep. You’ll find us in schools, neighborhoods, on the water, and in government — working daily to protect this vital resource.

 

We envision a Bay where wildlife thrives, communities flourish, and future generations remain connected to the water that sustains us all.

Through our five core programs Education, Advocacy, Restoration, Conservation & Protection we drive lasting impacts for our community and the environment.

Education: 

Inspiring the next generation through hands-on, STEM-based outdoor learning to build future conservation leaders.

 

Restoration: 

Partnering with volunteers to rebuild shorelines, remove debris, and restore wetlands and oyster reefs to heal the Bay.

 

Water Protection: 

Ensuring clean, safe water through monitoring, pollution reduction, and empowering communities to safeguard this lifeline.

Land Conservation: 

Protecting over 17,500 acres of coastal habitat that provide clean water, wildlife refuge, recreation, and resilience against storms.

Advocacy

Giving the Bay a strong voice by uniting community members, businesses, and policymakers to champion policies that protect the Bay’s health and future.
