Board Member Challenge
We all benefit from national conservation initiatives – making the tax incentive permanent, a comprehensive training curriculum legal defense and more.
When you participate in the Alliance’s Board Member Challenge, you and your board will increase your land conservation impact by supporting conservation leaders who work nationally to strengthen land trusts. You'll also help advance a shared vision for local land protection.
See how it works and the benefits of becoming a member!
Just announced! These four land trusts have 100% board participation in the Board Member Challenge and won the drawing for a complimentary ticket to Rally:
Willistown Land Trust , Columbia Land Conservancy, Agricultural Stewardship Association, and

Take the Challenge
All it takes to support the national community is becoming an individual member of the Land Trust Alliance with a gift of $35 or more. Join now!
Congratulations to this successful group of Challenge participants who are providing leadership
