NEW GRANT PROGRAM
Introducing Land Capital Grants
TO ACCELERATE THE ACQUISITION OF LAND AND CONSERVATION EASEMENTS
CLCC is excited to announce the launch of a new initiative: the Land Capital Grant (LCG) Program. This program aims to empower land trusts to swiftly secure critical conservation lands by providing financial support for land and conservation easement acquisitions.
Recognizing the urgent need for financial resources within the land conservation community, the LCG Program will offer grants ranging from $50,000 to $500,000. These grants are designed to bridge funding gaps and accelerate the protection of valuable conservation lands.
