Our mission is to lead Texas into a sustainable water future by investing in the next generation of water leaders

Texas Water Foundation is a nonpartisan, 501(c)(3) nonprofit working to lead Texas into a sustainable water future. Established in 1998, its original objective was to raise public awareness among all Texans regarding the vital role water plays in our daily lives. Today, Texas Water Foundation has grown its vision to include investing in the next generation of water leaders, equipping informed decision makers, and inspiring water advocates across Texas.

With the leadership of a committed Board of Directors, Texas Water Foundation adopted a new strategic plan.
