Your planned gift will ensure a legacy of protected wildlife habitat, waterways and heritage sites across America while providing capital gains and federal estate tax savings.

We welcome the opportunity to discuss your goals and to give you more information about Planned Giving options. Please contact Stacy Hosler, Development Program Manager at 703-908-5805 or shosler@conservationfund.org. All inquiries will be held in the strictest confidence.

We advise that you consult your attorney or tax consultant about how tax benefits may apply to your specific situation. Donations to The Conservation Fund, a 501(c)(3) charity, are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. Our tax identification number is: 52-1388917.
