OVERVIEW

The Texas Water Action Collaborative (TxWAC) matches companies and funders with conservation projects to positively benefit Texas’ water resources.

If you have projects, programs, or initiatives that need funding and can articulate the project's benefits to water and the surrounding community, please complete the below survey - please complete a separate survey submission for each project, program, and/or initiative.

You can also download this survey to fill out in Google Sheets or Excel format = please email the completed survey to programs@texanbynature.org.

For ongoing programs that are highly scalable and customizable depending on location/budget/funder capability, please contact us at programs@texanbynature.org to discuss how best to characterize before submitting this survey.

Once you complete the survey, Texan by Nature will score your submission and will work with you to create a project proposal that will be included in the TxWAC Project Portfolio. If your project aligns with participating companies' goals, it will be included in project matching proposals that are sent out three times per year.

Through TxWAC you will gain exposure to many organizations from the conservation and business space across Texas and they will gain awareness about your work! Please note that completing the TxWAC survey does not guarantee funding. If a company is interested in learning more about your project and/or funding your project, Texan by Nature will reach out to you for questions, set up a meeting, and/or make an email introduction. Texan by Nature’s role is to facilitate the project matching process so we can accelerate funding and conservation efforts. If a company does choose to fund your project through TxWAC, there will be a suggested transaction fee that the funder will cover (~5-15% of total project costs).
