Support the Match Madness Campaign!

Making a donation of stock is an easy and meaningful way to advance important programs and services in our community. Gifting appreciated stock that has been held for more than one year to a charitable organization may provide a valuable way to avoid paying capital gains tax on the
increase in value. It’s an easy, tax-smart way to give. Plus, it may increase your potential
charitable deduction. Always consult your personal tax advisor for individual tax advice.

During the Match Madness campaign, the Partnership for Better Health is accepting gifts of stock to benefit participating organizations like Central Pennsylvania Conservancy Instructions for your broker to make
the stock transfer are shared below. Please make sure Central Pennsylvania Conservancy is listed as the designation for the gift: 100% of your stock contribution will be received by our organization, plus a portion of the matching gift fund.

Donations must be made through the Partnership’s donation page: https://interland3.donorperfect.net/weblink/weblink.aspx?name=E206321&id=10

Please consider a gift today! As you may know, CPC has been active since 1982 with a mission to acquire, preserve, and protect local land and natural resources in South-Central Pennsylvania. We currently steward 5 preserves and 30 conservation easement properties while initiating new protection projects each year to save critical lands from future development, secure open space and habitat, protect high-quality streams, preserve working farms and healthy forests, and open public access to nature for all.

Proceeds support our spring launch of the Letort Spring Garden Preserve restoration initiative. We’re starting the first phase of ecological restoration to bring the site back to the flora and fauna that James Letort may have encountered in the 1720’s. We’re rehabilitating the historic bank barn and springhouse listed currently on the National Register of Historic Places. We’re excited to keep expanding public access to the preserve and to add informative signs along our trails. Show your support for this work with a donation this month–we thank you in advance for your generosity!
