Ways to Give
Donate Stock or Mutual Funds: Direct transfers of stock or mutual funds can be made from your broker to KNLT. Please let us know that you plan to initiate the transfer and contact Caroline Meena at Stock Yards Bank & Trust at (800) 625-9066 for transfer details.
Give from your IRA: Individual retirement arrangement (IRA) owners age 70½ or over can transfer funds to KNLT tax-free each year. Ask your IRA administrator or financial advisor about qualified charitable distributions (QCDs) to learn about this option.
Leave a Legacy: Including a gift to KNLT in your estate plans can help sustain our wildlands mission for future generations. Legacy giving options may include bequests (will or trust), life insurance, Individual Retirement Accounts, 401(k) or pension plan donations, and gifts of stock, cash or real estate. Read more about planned giving in our Wildlands Legacy Society brochure. Members of the Wildlands Legacy Society receive a Luna moth lapel pin and will be invited to special events.
New in 2024! Charitable Gift Annuities: If you are over 55 and interested in protecting wildlands while securing your financial future, you may be interested in a Charitable Gift Annuity (CGA). KNLT is now partnering with the National Gift Annuity Foundation to offer CGAs that provide you with fixed payments for life while also advancing our mission. You may also benefit from some tax advantages!
To learn more about the Wildlands Legacy Society or CGAs contact Nicole Breyette, Development Director: (502) 314-4395 or [email protected]. Please note, KNLT cannot provide specific advice about your charitable giving decisions. We encourage you to discuss your philanthropic and financial goals with your financial advisor to determine which giving options are right for you.
Make a Tribute Gift: Give a gift in memory of a loved one or in honor of a special person in your life. Simply write a note to accompany any form of payment or use our secure donation page and select the check box that indicates “I would like to dedicate this donation” to share information about your tribute gift. KNLT will send a note to your loved one or a family member to show how much you care.
Give an Acre or Give a Square Mile: KNLT’s mission is made possible by gifts of all sizes. We especially depend on donors who are able to give unrestricted gifts at or above the leadership level ($1,000 annually). A gift at this level supports the overall mission of KNLT, but is symbolic of the average cost per acre of Kentucky wildlands.
Our One Square Mile Award honors those who have made donations over their lifetime that represent the cost of an entire square mile of wildlands (640 acres). Contact Nicole at (502) 314-4395 or [email protected] to learn more about these and other giving levels.
Double your gift with employer matches: Ask your Human Resources Department about charitable matching options.
Donate a car, truck, boat or farm machinery: Learn more about our partnership with CARS by visiting Careasy.org/kentucky-natural-lands-trust or calling (855)500-7433.
Give while you shop: It’s easy to support KNLT by using Kroger Community Rewards (org #VQ829).
No matter how you choose to give or how much, Kentucky Natural Lands Trust is grateful for your gift. We understand that protecting an interconnected world depends on the power of partnership. With you by our side, KNLT can fulfill our mission of connecting, protecting and restoring wildlands in Kentucky today and for years to come.
