Be One In a Million

The Be One in a Million campaign is our grassroots engine. We are asking one million people to give $10 each. This approach is powerful because every small gift helps leverage much larger state and federal grant dollars. For every $10 donated, $372 in federal and state conservation dollars is unlocked. So far, over 2,500 donors have contributed nearly $2.3M. We believe everyone is a Conservationist. By partnering with everyday citizens like you as well as with state, local, and federal organizations and agencies, we believe the wilds of Galveston Island can be preserved for generations to come.

Artist Boat is working to protect the last wild corridor on west Galveston Island. Our immediate focus is a push to secure the remaining funding of $3,481,000 of the $16,361,000 to acquire 204 additional acres for the Coastal Heritage Preserve (the Preserve). This acquisition will bring the total land saved to 1,243 acres, achieving 88% of our ultimate 1,400-acre goal. Ancient Dune Swales exist all across the Island. In particular, we are looking to save the dune swales existing in the area between 8 Mile Road and Pabst Road between the 3005 San Luis Pass Road and Steward Road. The acreage already saved have protected 3-miles of living bay shorelines in the areas between LaFitte’s Cove and Spanish Grant, past Spanish Grant and along Settegast Road.
