More Great Ways To Support Us

 

 

The Legacy Gift

​

A new way to support us is with a Legacy Gift.  This is a gift from you to Earthshine Nature Programs when you pass.  It could be monetary, land, or even a vehicle donation. 

​

If you choose a monetary donation you could leave it as a general gift we would then be able to use where it was most needed, or you could assign a specific use to it such as education, habitat construction, or special projects such as the completion of Phase Three of our Classroom Solar Array Project or our Nature Preserve project. 

​

If a land donation, and if the parcel has useable structures upon it, we may opt to use the structures to expand our outreach programming or simply sell it to support our organization.  If the land is undeveloped and valuable as wildlife habitat we may choose to preserve the land in your name (if you so choose) as a conservation easement and, if close to our area of operations, it would become an educational study site for our outreach programming and wildlife conservation activities - see the details of our nature preserve project on the Big Dream page.

​

If you choose to donate a vehicle we would either choose to sell it to raise funds to support our organization or, if your vehicle is 100% electric such as a Chevrolet Bolt, Nissan Leaf, or Tesla, it would be very useful to us so we may choose to put it into service as a company vehicle and use it in our wildlife rescue, renewable energy, and electric vehicle outreach education programming in the local and regional communities.

 

Either way, your choice to make your Legacy Gift to Earthshine Nature Programs would have a lasting and valuable impact on our ability to bring our nature, wildlife conservation, renewable energy, and science literacy messages to the hundreds of young naturalists, scientists, and thinkers we encounter each year via our outreach programming and through our partnership with Trails Carolina and Trails Momentum where Steve works as a naturalist. 

   

                                             Yes, it really is that easy to support us!                                                                            

 

!!THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!
