The Historic Waco Foundation is located in Waco, Texas, and manages four house museums open for tours. The Foundation also sponsors several festivals and events each year, including lecture series, and Christmas on the Brazos.

"Historic Waco Foundation revitalizes the past and makes it a part of the present. Waco has not lost the memory of Indians camping around the natural springs, of pioneers planting cotton along the Brazos, or of cattlemen driving their great herds up the Chisholm Trail, because Historic Waco Foundation persistently reminds succeeding generations of how the city came to be what it is today."
