Our vounteer board is offering a Matching Grant of $25,000 for new annual appeal gifts of $1000 or more. 
The 2022 Annual Appeal provides funds for our operating expenses for 2023. Your gift is vital to our mission. Our small staff of two full-time equivalents works hard to make each dollar count!
The protection of Shingle Place Hill against the 40B development continues at the state level. The denial decision has been appealed, and we will continue our expert work in a coordinated effort with the town. Our experience this year drives us to accelerate our permanent protection of other land in our communities through acquisition and conservation. We appreciate extra gifts towards these expenses.
Double your impact today! Our board members have personally established a grant to match your gift: if you are able to increase your giving to $1000, they will match it 100%.
