The St. Lawrence Land Trust, a volunteer-run organization, actively seeks involvement from everyone passionate about the St. Lawrence Valley. You do not have to have expertise in land conservation, just a willingness to donate some time and support the Mission of the Land Trust. Contact us, and we will let you know how you can volunteer to help the cause of private-land conservation in our region.
Contribute Funds
A principal source of funding for the St. Lawrence Land Trust is individual, business and private foundation contributions. As a 501(c)(3) conservation organization, contributions are tax deductible. We are volunteer-run and our administrative costs are modest allowing most of our funding to be used directly to accomplish our conservation priorities and community outreach. We adhere to the Land Trust Alliance’s Standards & Practices, which provides sound guidelines for fiscal responsibility and accountability.
Please consider contributing now or contact us for further information about the Land Trust and how to provide financial support.

Protect Your Land
