We serve as a trusted philanthropic advisor to families, foundations, and corporate philanthropies that aim to leave a lasting legacy of land and wildlife stewardship. Private capital and landowner donations are critical to secure significant conservation outcomes and help spur governments to provide matching taxpayer dollars. We help donors refine their conservation giving strategies to maximize impact and achieve measurable ecological results. Common areas of interest include land and watershed protection, forest and wetland restoration, wildlife reintroduction, and trails/greenways.  

Some of our services include:

• Personalized briefings on North Carolina’s conservation landscape, major players, and impact opportunities

• Review and vet funding proposals from nonprofit conservation organizations on your behalf

• Support establishing and/or managing tax-advantaged giving vehicles, including donor advised funds and foundations

• Guidance on land management and the donation or sale of large landholdings to conservation organizations

• Guided hikes, bird walks and visits to conservation sites
