The Bolivar Point Lighthouse Foundation is a Texas-based non-profit organization focused on the preservation and restoration of the historic 1872 Bolivar Point Lighthouse, one of the last remaining lighthouses on the Gulf Coast. Through the dedication of its supporters, volunteers, and donors, the foundation is committed to maintaining this iconic landmark and sharing its rich legacy with future generations.

In 2024, the foundation achieved significant milestones in its restoration efforts, including the completion of structural stabilization, restoration of the cast iron entry door, and repainting the lighthouse in its original black-and-white stripes for the first time in 75 years. These accomplishments reflect the organization's ongoing mission to inspire and educate the public about Texas history through the preservation of its historical sites.
