Planned Giving is another way to leave a lasting legacy on the landscape of the magnificent Keweenaw Peninsula. Keweenaw Land Trust accepts gifts of real estate, which are evaluated for conservation and cultural value. Lands may be retained for nature preserves or sold, with the donor's permission, to provide income for the Trust's conservation program. Lands meriting protection, but not suitable for a preserve, are sold with a conservation easement in place. Donors may choose to deed a remainder interest on their property to Keweenaw Land Trust and reserve a life estate for themselves.

Gifts of cash, securities, charitable remainder trusts, and life insurance may designate KLT as a beneficiary or be given via a will. Gifts may be designated for an endowment, for general operating support, or for a special project. Every gift to Keweenaw Land Trust makes a difference and every gift is important and unique.

Keweenaw Land Trust is a charitable organization and gifts may result in tax advantages. Donors should seek professional advice from an estate planner, attorney, or tax professional to ensure their needs are met.
