General donation: Any donation to the Land Trust is appreciated. Donations that don’t specify a fund or purpose go into our general fund and are spent throughout the year for expenses such as land acquisition, rent for our office space, insurance, trail maintenance equipment and supplies, non-profit filings.



Land Acquisition Fund A fund where donations are set aside for the purchase of future lands / properties. Similar to the General Donation fund in that no specific property is identified for its use. Rather, it's to be used to initiate such future purchases.



Memorial and Honoring Donations can be made with to memorialize a departed loved one or honor a friend, relative, or organization. The death of Land Trust friend Barry Scanlon elicited donations that were used to establish a trail at Salter's Pond. Please specify your wishes in the "additional info" box and if you want the gift acknowledged, please include the name and address.



The Endowment Fund was established in 2013 to help maintain the Trust’s parks and its mission well into the future. Only the fund’s income (not the principal) is tapped to meet budget needs. Donors make gifts to the fund in any manner including by a bequest in a will, by designation as a beneficiary in a life insurance policy or annuity, and by designation in a charitable remainder trust. Outright gifts of cash, appreciated stock, etc. to the fund would be welcome. We salute founding member Dr. Fred Spaulding for his $1000 donation in honor of Susan Barlow to begin this fund.
