Land trusts are in the business of land conservation. Land conservation can be costly, even for land or conservation easement donations. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit land conservation organization, KMLT must use its limited financial resources effectively. To do so, KMLT has developed specific criteria to rank potential projects to guide which projects meet our conservation goals and are financially feasible. Your financial contributions to KMLT help us in this effort. Protecting and restoring native ecosystems, and preserving Walworth County's rural character will benefit many.
