THANK YOU!
SJLC Beach Cleanup Crew on North Haulover Beach
You play a vital role in protecting the quality of life that we all treasure on St. John. Our island home in its natural state, safe from destruction, is a triumph of teamwork in the truest sense.
The SJLC is supported by donations from people who care about preserving the natural lands of St. John. Your generous contribution goes to support further land acquisition, the many operational costs, land stewardship or conservation agreements.
Our conservation work is only possible through the generosity of our donors. Please help us by making a donation today.
You can make a secure and easy monetary contribution here to our donation campaign using your credit card. For more information about us or to discuss making a land donation or conservation agreement, please call 937-559-0734 or email us at info@stjohnlandconservancy.org Thank you!!
The SJLC guarantees 100% of your donation goes where you want it to go. We can allocate all or any portion of your gift to the ongoing project that’s most important to you.
* Acquisition of land
* Restoration and stabilization of historic ruins
* General property management
* Administration or where most needed
St John Business Owners!
The SJLC provides the opportunity for businesses to invest in the island where they work. Speak to your financial advisor about tax benefits of donating a percentage of your profits by your fiscal year end and think of us when you’re making your charitable plans.
Stocks & Bonds
A gift of appreciated stock or Mutual funds can provide you with a charitable tax deduction and eliminate capital gains tax.
Upon receipt the stock will be sold and used to further the Mission of the Conservancy. Contact your financial adviser before transferring stock.
IRA or Retirement Plan
Naming the SJLC as a partial of full beneficiary of the remainder of your IRA or retirement plan can make a very meaningful gift.
Distributions from retirement plans at the death of the survivor of the account holder can be subject to both income and estate taxes. In some cases, taxes might leave less that 30% of the plans balance for your children and heirs.
If you name the SJLC as beneficiary, you avoid both income and estate taxes so 100% of the plans balance will be used to protect the natural lands of St. John for future generations.
Bequest
If you wish to make a Bequest to provide for us after your lifetime your donation will be exempt from estate taxes.
Honorary and Memorial Gifts
Honor the special people, places, and events in your life – and give back to the places you love. Or, offer a memorial gift as a wonderful testimony to the life of a beloved person who is no longer with us
