In the fall of 2004, Gathering Waters Conservancy
introduced the Land Legacy Society, a special opportunity to protect
Wisconsin’s lands and waters. The Land Legacy Society is a
club made up of individuals who share our love for Wisconsin and
who have made a commitment to donate $1,000 or more annually to
Gathering Waters to ensure the continued growth and sustainability
of our programs.
The Land Legacy Society is picking up the pace
of conservation in Wisconsin. With the strong support of the Society,
ten years from now:
• Land trusts will be a part of
every landowner’s vocabulary. Just as landowners
know that they can pick up the phone and call a realtor, they
will also know that they can contact their local land trust.
• Land trusts will be community
institutions as important as the local library, YMCA
or art museum in contributing to the overall health and vitality
of their communities.
• Public policies will reflect
our conservation values and programs like the Stewardship Fund,
the state’s premiere land conservation program, will enjoy
strong bipartisan support.
