Making a planned gift to The Conservation Fund helps you create a lasting impact for the people and the wildlife of our country. The Conservation Fund does encourage you, before you execute any planned giving documents (such as a will), to contact your own CPA or lawyer who can assure that your wishes are carried out legally.
The Legacy Club recognizes the generosity of our friends who have chosen to include The Conservation Fund in their estate plans or who have made life income gifts with us. We thank these generous donors and hope they inspire you to make a difference for future generations by designating a planned gift to the Fund.
If you have provided for The Conservation Fund in your will or trust or created a life income gift, we invite you to be recognized as a member of the Legacy Club.

(Please note: Each state has its own particular rules that are to be applied to planned giving documents, and because the requirements for the gift to take effect vary depending on where you reside now or in the future, we strongly recommend that you have appropriate language drafted by an estate planning professional. The language we set out below is merely an example of language that has worked in prior situations, but might not for your circumstances; thus we do encourage you to consult with a lawyer or CPA who can be sure your intentions are given effect as you wish. We thank you again for your generosity.)

Charity Navigator and
American Institute of Philanthropy
give us their highest rating.
"The Conservation Fund has earned our seventh consecutive 4-star rating. Receiving four out of a possible four stars indicates that your organization adheres to good governance and other best practices that minimize the chance of unethical activities and consistently executes its mission in a fiscally responsible way. Only 2% of the charities we rate have received at least seven consecutive 4-star evaluations, indicating that The Conservation Fund outperforms most other charities in America. This “exceptional” designation from Charity Navigator differentiates The Conservation Fund from its peers and demonstrates to the public it is worthy of their trust."
