Stand for the Land – a bold new Land Trust campaign to safeguard critical habitat before it’s gone – just got an enormous boost in the form of a $500,000 challenge grant. A small group of generous Islanders has agreed to match every dollar we raise for Stand for the Land through March 31, 2019, for a total of $1,000,000. Help us meet this unprecedented challenge opportunity.
The Bainbridge Island Land Trust’s mission is to preserve and steward the diverse natural environment of Bainbridge Island for the benefit of all. To achieve this goal, the Land Trust acquires interests in land having significant or potentially significant conservation values such as scenic vistas, wetlands, open spaces, tidelands, forest, unique plant and animal habitats and stream and wildlife corridors. We work with private landowners to protect their land using land protection agreements called conservation easements. We also work with a variety of partners to acquire land for preserves, parks, trails and public use.
