On dragonfly wings...

You were so very generous last year. When The Dragonfly Fund offered to double your gift, 1,789 of you responded with support! We could not be more grateful, and we will continue in all we can do to further the mission of LTC to its fullest; there is still so much to save in our beautiful north. Future generations will recognize this gift to nature itself and all that you are doing today! The following programs received gifts that were doubled by The Dragonfly Fund last year:

Membership: unrestricted annual gifts, providing critical support to our daily work
Endowment: our forever promise to protect the land
Protect Land: unrestricted gifts to land protection
Wild Shores Initiative: protecting Great Lakes shoreline
Chigidaaki: Place of the Big Hill Working Forest Reserve: 654 acres protected outside of Boyne City 
ECAR – Ecological Conditions and Response: helping us inventory all living things on LTC lands
Farmland Conservation Initiative: protecting farms throughout northern Michigan 
Maple River Watershed Initiative: safeguarding land throughout this critical watershed
