Ways to contribute

Texas Campaign for the Environment pushes back on polluters and their pals who fuel the climate crisis while perpetrating environmental injustice in Texas communities.

To do that work, we rely on the financial support of individuals and organizations who share our values and priorities and want to help us collaborate with everyday Texans fighting for a pollution-free future. 

Donate here today, or read more below about additional options for giving to TCE.

Make a bequest

We all want to leave behind a better planet and a Texas free from pollution. You can support this vision for years to come by including Texas Campaign for the Environment in your estate plans. A bequest is a gift made through a will or a living trust. It’s the most popular and easiest planned gift, it costs nothing during your lifetime, and it may help you reduce your estate taxes. A bequest can be included in a new will or added to an existing will or living trust through a simple amendment, often without the expense of hiring a lawyer.  Contact us via the information in the website footer to request more information about making a bequest.

Contribute stocks

You can also support TCE by contributing stocks or securities. Your gift is equal to the fair market value of the stock, and you avoid paying the capital gains tax on any increase in the current value over the original cost of the stock if you held them for more than one year. You may also save by not incurring brokerage fees because you are transferring ownership rather than selling the stock. You can make your gift of stocks as an outright gift or by placing a transfer on death (TOD) designation on your investment account. Contact us via the information in the website footer to request more information about contributing stock.

Make a tax-deductible donation

TCE is recognized as a 501(c)(4) non-profit organization with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. The 501(c)(4) designation allows us to actively lobby legislators and other elected and appointed officials. For this reason, contributions to TCE are not tax-deductible. To make a tax-deductible contribution to support the work of our 501(c)3 non-profit sister organization, Texas Campaign for the Environment Fund, click here. TCE Fund has a variety of other ways to get involved, including donations of personal property such as vehicles and art. TCE Fund is also active in EarthShare of Texas for workplace contributions efforts and other partnerships.
