Introducing New Ways to Give to Protect the Open Spaces You Love

The snow is melting, the trails are opening, the flowers are blooming, and the work to protect the Truckee Donner region is in full swing.

This spring, we want to share new tax-savvy ways to protect the open spaces you love while also supporting your own financial well-being:

Stock contributions: Avoid the capital gains tax and maximize your support for land conservation.

IRA gifts (for those 70.5 or older): Reduce your taxable income and fulfill your Required Minimum Distribution if you are 73+.

Donor-Advised Fund Grants: Sustain Truckee Donner Land Trust with funds you’ve already set aside.

Through tax-smart giving, you can continue this vital work while reducing your tax burden. It’s a win-win! Thank you for your support!

Donate Online NowDonate today by credit or debit card, mobile pay, or bank transfer. Set up a recurring donation, or make a gift in honor/memory of someone special.
