Contact us to see if we can work out a mutually agreeable plan.

Companies can receive tax benefits by donating to RLC, and may match employee donations made to us. Companies match gifts made by employees, employee’s spouses, or a retired employee. Check with your company’s Employee Benefits or Human Resources department to see if this is an option for you.

Companies or foundations oftentimes provide large, structured gifts, sometimes in exchange for recognition or partnership. These gifts are generally deductible as charitable contributions or as marketing expenses.

Please contact us to explore possibly mutually beneficial ideas.

Monthly, quarterly, or annual giving provides resources to continue our mission of environmental preservation and protection. Write a check on the schedule your prefer, or set up recurring bank drafts or EFTs through your bank.

Estate plans can make gifts possible that might not have been practical during your lifetime. Deferred gifts can be made through a will or trust, and may include gifts of stock, bonds, mutual funds, life insurance or another planned giving vehicle.
