Donate to Schiff

Schiff Nature Preserve relies heavily on the generosity of its members, grants, and in-kind donations to remain financially sustainable. Donating an in-kind item allows Schiff’s operating dollars to stretch farther and gives our members and donors the satisfaction of knowing that your gift is helping us to offer quality programs and activities and steward this land.

We also encourage and model fiscally responsible operations, so we welcome offers of in-kind or preowned items not listed here. For example, we recently accepted an in-kind donation of a “newer” refrigerator that was an upgrade to our current refrigerator.
