About Us
Who Are We & What Do We Do
Texas Coastal CattleWomen (TCCW), a 501c3 local organization covering thirteen Gulf Coast counties, is affiliated with Texas CattleWomen (TCW-state) and American National CattleWomen (ANCW-national). Our local organization welcomes members from any county in Texas to work with us in the serving of the following counties: Austin, Brazoria, Chambers, Fort Bend, Galveston, Grimes, Harris, Liberty, Montgomery, San Jacinto, Waller, Walker and Wharton.
We share friendships and have a passion for supporting and being ambassadors for the Beef Industry by providing accurate facts and reliable information to consumers (neighbors, friends, etc.) concerning the nutrition of BEEF. As the industry diminishes (shortage of pasture land and water), it more greatly needs our support.
Owning cattle is NOT a requirement for membership.
We are thrilled to announce
WE ARE NOW a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization!
As a nonprofit, we join the ranks of state and county livestock shows and rodeos that strive to further the promotion and education of beef to the community, the financial support of the youth through college years and our ranchers in times of dire need.
Our 501(c)(3) status allows us to continue to engage and support our community. It also allows us to accept tax-deductible donations from you, our generous supporters. We thank everyone who has contributed—your 2019 donations will qualify as tax deductible!
Our spiffy new Tax ID Number is 83-2460367.
EVENTS
TCCW’s Luncheon, Style Show, Raffle and Shopping is held annually in February. This fundraiser allows us to offer college scholarships to study agriculture related, consumer science, or hotel / restaurant management courses for a major; to donate to TCW and others as requested or needed (farmers/ranchers with great losses), and to financially provide for other activities.
TCCW typically meets the third Wednesday of each month (except March/Rodeo, June, July and August) for lunch at various restaurant locations. Some of our annual events include:
- Distributing donated beef by-products coloring books to county fairs.
-Serving an evening beef meal to families of the Houston Ronald McDonald House.
-Having a Christmas dinner where we collect Toys for Tots, and donate money to honor our veterans.
-Supporting national Ag Week with activities to promote beef education in schools, at the rodeo or in the community.
-Holding a “Beef for Father’s Day” promotion by feeding veterans’ families at the Fisher House.
