Community initiatives

Texas Healthy Habitats partnership

As a proud sponsor of Service Learning Texas, we continue to support the Texas Healthy Habitats initiative. Each year, the Healthy Habitats program awards 15 service-learning grants to Texas schools and groups that focus on restoring natural environments in and around Texas.

As a member of this initiative, alongside Service Learning and the Texas Department of Parks and Wildlife, we hope to continue education about the importance of environmental care and reclamation. These projects are a reflection of our ongoing commitment to environmental stewardship and community engagement. Learn more about our support of Healthy Habitats.
