Conserving Land • Protecting Resources
Since 1987
 

As of January 1, 2024, the Rensselaer Land Trust has merged with the Rensselaer Plateau Alliance. For all questions regarding donations, events, land, or other matters, please visit www.rensselaerplateau.org or call 518-712-9211. For questions about the merger, use extension 101 to speak with Jim Bonesteel. You can expect a new name and logo for our merged organization by Spring / Summer 2024 and a new website by the end of the year!

We are grateful for the support we receive from our donors. Each donation helps further our mission. Thank you!

Tribute and Honorary Gifts may be made in memory of (or in honor of) anyone you choose and will be listed in our Annual report. Tribute recipients (or their families) will receive notification of your gift (dollar amounts are not disclosed).

Endowment Fund donations are placed in a specific investment fund account, where the principal is untouched and the interest only is used to support the operations of the Rensselaer Land Trust, Inc. Endowment gifts allow the Rensselaer Land Trust to build a sustainable organization over the long term and protect land in perpetuity.
