TPWD FOUNDATION, 3: Every dollar counts when it comes to funding life-changing projects in Texas 06 [" ... work of the department."] ... on Passport to Texas. This is Passport to Texas The staff at the TPW Foundation brings partners and donors together to fund meaningful projects in Texas. 09 -- Projects like the pronghorn restoration program that we're partnering with the department and Borderland Research Institute out in West Texas. Wildlife restoration and land acquisition are just two of the areas the Foundation focuses its fundraising. Anne Brown is Executive Director. 15 -- I think anytime these days when you have multiple partners who commit to a project identified as a priority and then help give the funds or raise the funds that signals to the donor that this is a project that's important to a wide variety of conservation organizations. Brown says the work of the TPWD speaks for itself and moves people to support the cause with philanthropic gifts. 20 -- The word philanthropy is so large; sometimes people think philanthropy and they only think of it as a big gift. And I always like to define philanthropy as you're either giving of your time, your energy, or your resources. And that's all philanthropy. A five dollar gift is philanthropy. A five million dollar gift is philanthropy. And the time that you spend with an organization is philanthropy. Learn about the work of the TPW Foundation in the April issue of TPW magazine.
