Planned Giving What Will Your Conservation Legacy Be?
Planned giving members give a permanent voice to their conservation values with a legacy gift to Litchfield Land Trust. These gifts help us fulfill our obligation to steward conserved lands forever.
We invite you to include Litchfield Land Trust in your legacy giving plan. A legacy gift from your estate or your assets provides enhanced long-term support for our mission and provides you with the knowledge that you are protecting significant and strategic lands for generations to come.
