Support the work behind the photographs

Local stewardship takes people—and support behind the scenes. TMD’s cleanup archive shows volunteers giving their time to collect shoreline litter. Alongside this hands-on work, we share native-tree education and document North Texas landscapes.


Our current funding priorities are general operations and a planned native nursery at a separate site from our collection locations. General operating support helps sustain the organization behind TMD’s cleanups and programs.


Help support TMD’s work in North Texas through our official donation page.
