Each year, organizations with on-going conservation projects submit applications to be scored against a wide range of criteria with an emphasis on proven impact. They look for projects that are beneficial to quality of life, economic growth, and natural resources in equal measures. Projects can focus on any natural resource such as wildlife, land, and water can encompass any Texas geography from urban to rural and can take many forms as shown in prior year projects.
During each program cycle, Texan by Nature selects up to six Conservation Wrangler projects to support with 18-months of program management, strategic planning, marketing messaging, metrics capture and analysis, professional content production, and partnership development – whatever is needed to accelerate the project. Texan by Nature publicly announces projects annually during the first week in April, and also highlights the projects at the esteemed annual Conservation Summit.
