More About Our Partner

A former hunting ranch, Brazos Bend State Park is about 28 miles south­west of Houston and covers roughly 5,000 acres. Its 3.2-mile east­ern boundary fronts the Brazos River on the southeast border of Fort Bend County. The state purchased the park land in 1976-77. Brazos Bend opened in 1984.


Support Generation SERVE

We provide supplies and an Activity Lead for every activity. A $60 donation would help us cover the costs for this activity! Lastly, you also can become a family sponsor to support us in providing fun volunteer opportunities for other families! Thank you for your support and generosity! We appreciate it!
