Support SVT

SVT is proud to be supported by a broad community of members who are committed to protecting the natural landscapes of the Sudbury, Assabet, and Concord River watershed. When you make a donation of any amount, at any time, you become a member for one year from the date of your last gift.

Members receive:

• Our print newsletter 3x per year and regular updates about conservation projects

• Complimentary tickets to SVT's annual Ice Cream Social

• Invitations to events, walks, and programs

• The satisfaction of supporting land conservation close to home

SVT members also select SVT's Board of Directors at our Annual Meeting

SVT is grateful for every member who supports our mission. All members, at any giving level, are part of our community and receive meaningful opportunities to stay connected with our work. We also offer additional recognition and engagement opportunities for donors who choose to give at higher levels or make a lasting legacy commitment.

Living Waters Society (Legacy Giving)
The Living Waters Society recognizes individuals and families who have included SVT in their estate plans. A planned gift to SVT creates a lasting conservation legacy while allowing you to preserve assets during your lifetime.

There are many ways to make a legacy gift, some of which may offer tax benefits. Common options include:

• Simple bequests

• Beneficiary designations on retirement or financial assets

• Gifts of real estate

Life Members
Life Membership is awarded by the SVT Board of Directors to honor individuals or families who have contributed $100,000 or more to SVT over their lifetime through a combination of financial gifts, donated land, or conservation restrictions. Life Members are recognized for their extraordinary and enduring commitment to conservation.

Monthly gifts provide reliable, year-round support for land stewardship and conservation work. Even a small monthly donation adds up to meaningful, long-term impact. Our Habitat Heroes provide SVT with reliable, year-round support, allowing us to plan ahead and care for the land consistently. Knowing we can count on ongoing support helps us budget responsibly, steward conservation land, and move projects forward with confidence.

All Habitat Heroes will receive a unique patch celebrating SVT for every year they are monthly donors.
