Funds will Help Conserve the State’s Lands, Waters, and Wildlife
Austin, TX (May 6, 2025)-On May 1, 2025, Garrison Brothers, Texas’ first legal bourbon distillery presented a check for $50,000.00 to Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation (TPWF). These funds were raised from a limited 1,000 bottle release of Balmorhea Cask Strength at the annual Texas Independence Day event held at Garrison Brothers Distillery on March 1, 2025. Garrison Brothers donated $50 from each bottle sale to TPWF. The special release sold out. Garrison Brothers co-founders, Dan and Nancy Garrison were in Dallas on May 1 to present the donation check from Good Bourbon for a Good Cause, LLC, the non-profit arm for Garrison Brothers and other community initiatives to Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation.
“For the second year in a row, Garrison Brothers selected TPWF as the beneficiary of its Texas Independence Day celebration, and we greatly appreciate their dedication to conserving the state’s wildlife and beautiful lands with their generous support of our mission through the years,” said TPWF Executive Director Anne Brown.
Since its inception, Garrison Brothers has always used their good bourbon to change the world by creating partnerships with non-profits that are focused on veterans, environmental, local community, and hospitality industry causes. To date, Garrison Brothers has helped raised millions of dollars for their charity partners.
“Through our incredible partnerships and fundraisers, we help prove every day that good bourbon can change the world. Our continued partnership with Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation means so much to Garrison Brothers. We are thrilled to continue to support their programs that help keep Texas wild and beautiful,” adds Dan Garrison, Co-founder, Garrison Brothers.
