"Your trails have been a Godsend for me through the pandemic as I hike frequently with my friend who is a member. Within a day or two we often notice a volunteer has done work in a particular spot. I want to support these efforts. The tree damage from the recent hurricane was startling; you are working hard to recover. I particularly enjoyed Janis's vast knowledge and friendly spirit as she led the Full Moon Hike. Wishing you all all the best, please stay safe. I thank you for providing this gorgeous respite that has allowed me to stay healthy and happy." - C. Hagelin, Schiff member

Corporate Matching Programs

One of the strategies Schiff employs to provide the maximum amount of land protection possible is by pulling in other funders and supporters to complement the funds raised by our members and staff. It is possible for you to do the same through your employer's corporate matching program. Check with your human resources department to find out if your company will match your gift and, if so, ask them for the proper form. (You may also qualify through a company from which you have retired or on whose boards you serve.) If your company or employer does match donations, complete the form provided by them and send it to Schiff along with your gift. You will be notified when your corporate matching donation arrives.
