VLT membersThe steadfast support of our long-time donors and the volume of support from our new friends continues to amaze us!

This year, we had approximately 5,000 members, including nearly 700 new members!

With our members’ support, we have protected forests, farms, shorelines, wildlife habitat, and public trails in virtually every corner of Vermont.

With your help, we can continue protecting these special Vermont places. Members will receive our publications and invitations to special events such as our Annual Celebration.

Sustaining Memberships

Gift Memberships

Looking for a unique, local gift for your friends or family? Why not give a gift membership to VLT for birthdays, holidays, or any special occasion? Your $50 contribution will renew your own membership plus we’ll send the gift membership recipient a 16-piece Lake Champlain Chocolate Sampler.


Giving in Honor of Others

Honorary and Memorial Giving: Some members like to give in honor of a living or deceased person. If you do this, we will send notification to the recipient (or survivors) telling them that you have made a gift in their name.

Weddings: Are you getting married in lovely Vermont? Would you like to commemorate the occasion in a meaningful and personal way? Several soon-to-be-wed couples have chosen to include the Vermont Land Trust in their gift registry. A wedding couple may give a gift to VLT in honor of their guests, or may ask their guests to choose philanthropy as a gift to them.

If you would like to learn how to make honorary gifts, contact our Development Coordinator,  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it , at (802) 262-1204 to discuss your honorary or memorial giving options.
