support the trail

The Butler Trail will always be public parkland and will always belong to the people. To serve our city in all its diversity, the Trail must be a welcoming and engaging place for everyone. And the support of Trail users like you helps to do just that by protecting, enhancing, and connecting The Trail at Lady Bird Lake for the benefit of all. 

There are so many ways to give to The Trail Conservancy. We are a non-profit, tax-exempt charitable organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Our IRS EIN remains 87-0699956, as established under the original name, the Town Lake Trail Foundation.
