the USVLT can maintain a healthy balance between community needs and land conservation. Here are some ways you can help protect our rural character and open spaces:

Become a Member
Your annual membership contribution helps us to carry out our mission. You will receive regular updates on how your dues are working to protect our natural resources.

Contribute to the USVLT Endowment
Help us to establish a stewardship endowment to provide funds in perpetuity for land protection.

Donate a Conservation Easement
Your gift of an easement on your property will be protected by the Trust, can provide you with a charitable tax deduction, and will provide enjoyment for future generations.

Make a Contribution
Your financial donations of land, securities, bequests, and life-income gifts can provide significant tax advantages to donors while supporting the Trust's land conservation programs. Please contact us for more information on these opportunities.
