GIVE TO TLC

WAYS TO GIVE NOW

BECOME A MEMBER

When you join TLC as a member, you are protecting the scenic beauty, wildlife habitats, river corridors and working ranches of Texas. Without your help, we would not be able to preserve these wonderful places we all love.

MONTHLY STEWARDS

We appreciate monthly giving because it lets us project with a little more certainty expected future funds. For as little as $5 a month, you can join our Monthly Stewards and help us conserve Texas open spaces forever.

NED FRITZ SOCIETY

By donating $1,000 or more annually, members of our Ned Fritz Society lead their communities in supporting local conservation. Their generosity inspires others to protect the places that afford Texans an unrivaled quality of life.

WAYS TO GIVE IN THE FUTURE

LEAVE A LEGACY

When you make a planned gift, you become a member of the TLC Legacy Circle and join a community of Texans who have made a commitment to enhance quality of life through land conservation.

GIFTS THAT PAY YOU

Charitable Trusts are an option for donors who want income for life, bypass of capital gains tax on stock or real estate, reduced taxes and the satisfaction of providing for a good cause like TLC.

GIVE REAL ESTATE

Donating land through a bequest allows you to own, manage, and enjoy your land during your lifetime while ensuring your conservation legacy endures. Leave a natural legacy by conserving your land!

MORE WAYS TO GIVE

Donate Stock
DONATE STOCK
By giving appreciated securities you can avoid paying capital gains taxes, receive a tax deduction on the full value of the gift, and support TLC at a lower cost to you than if you made a cash gift. To donate stock, contact Maren McLaughlin-Klotz at 512.301.6363 or maren@texaslandconservancy.org.
Employer Matching
EMPLOYER MATCHING
Many companies offer programs that will match your charitable gift, and in some cases double or triple your gift amount. Some also match gifts for retirees, members of the board or spouses. Your employer might offer this benefit—ask them today!
In-kind Gifts
IN-KIND GIFTS
In-kind gifts are donations of goods, like vehicles and wading boots, or services. Donated items can be new or gently used. If you have an in-kind gift in mind, please contact us to see if it matches our current needs! If you would like to donate an item or learn more about in-kind gifts, please contact Maren McLaughlin-Klotz at 512.301.6363 or maren@texaslandconservancy.org.
Give From Your IRA
GIVE FROM YOUR IRA
People age 70½ and older can donate up to $100,000 directly to TLC from their individual retirement accounts (IRAs) without it being counted as taxable income. The gift can be used as your required minimum distribution. Your financial institution needs to issue the check directly to us, and the gift must be made by December 31 of the tax year. Contact your provider or visit their website to obtain a simple form to fill out.
