​​
Since 1986, the American Chestnut Land Trust has protected the Parkers Creek and Governors Run watersheds, their natural and cultural resources, waterways and wildlife habitats. Through the years, just as importantly, we’ve made special friends like you. You’ve watched ACLT grow from a small dedicated group of neighbors with a vision, to a more than 700 member organization with a purpose. We know you take as much pride in this land as we do. And we know that you want it to remain just as it is today - for your children, your grandchildren and every generation to come.
​
Now, as you plan for the future, you can help make that a reality. By making a legacy gift to the American Chestnut Land Trust and becoming a member of our “Friends Forever” society, you can ensure that ACLT will always be here to care for and protect this beautiful and important land.
By making a legacy gift to ACLT, you will be welcomed into the “Friends Forever Society" - a group of benefactors dedicated to ensuring that ACLT will continue to care for and protect Parkers Creek and its surrounding land for generations to come. As a member, you will enjoy the following benefits:
-
Exclusive invitations to "Friends Forever" events and other ACLT festivities.
-
Recognition in our quarterly newsletter, The Watershed Observer, and on the ACLT website (if desired).
-
An exclusive tile (pictured left) beautifully handmade by local artist Parran Collery, to recognize your dedication to the on-going conservation of land in Calvert County.
-
The knowledge that ACLT will continue to protect this precious land in perpetuity.
