Caring about your land is the most compelling reason to donate property to a land trust for a preserve.

If...

• Your land has significant conservation values, but there is no one to inherit the property or your likely heirs cannot or will not protect it
• Your highly appreciated property would generate large capital gains taxes if sold
• You have substantial real estate holdings and want to reduce the estate tax burdens of your heirs
• Your treasured land is too great a responsibility and you want to be certain it is managed and cared for by a group that appreciates its value

...donating your land to Northeast Wisconsin Land Trust may be an option for you.

An outright donation of land is a simple transaction, but it must be one the land trust is able to accept. Typically, we will request a financial contribution toward future management costs to be certain we can fulfill our obligation to protect your land forever. This endowment is an important part of our commitment to your land legacy.
