Galveston Bay Foundation
On October 12-13, 2019, our team will be riding 175 miles over 2 days around Galveston Bay representing the Galveston Bay Foundation in the 13th annual Bike Around the Bay cycling event. We are riding to support the Galveston Bay Foundation's programs in:
- Land Conservation
- Habitat Restoration
- Environmental Education
- Water Quality and Quantity
- Advocacy
Galveston Bay is the most productive bay in Texas, providing habitat for more than one-third of all threatened and endangered species, producing more oysters than any other body of water in the U.S., and supporting vital industries like agriculture & tourism.
You can help make a difference in preserving and protecting the Bay right in our own backyards by making a tax-deductible donation to our team members' rides. Your contribution will help preserve the beauty, tranquility, and health of Galveston Bay. Every donation, no matter the amount, is invested locally to help create a better bay!
