As part of their continued dedication to land conservation in Michigan, the J.A. Woollam Foundation committed support to Heart of the Lakes Center for Land Conservation Policy’s fundraising efforts and will match contributions raised over the next three years, up to a maximum of $15,000 or $5,000 per year.

This challenge gift will match, dollar for dollar, individual, business, and organizational contributions made to Heart of the Lakes enabling us to continue to support the Michigan conservation community through policy and conservation research, advocating sound public policy, and offering services to member land conservancies.

Join Heart of the Lakes' efforts with a gift today and double the impact you can make for land conservation in Michigan.

By bolstering Heart of the Lakes’ fundraising efforts, the J.A. Woollam Foundation is actively contributing to Michigan’s economic and environmental prosperity. The land-based resources Heart of the Lakes’ members and partners protect contribute more revenue to Michigan’s economy (agriculture, tourism, and forestry) than any other industry. Quality access to nature defines our sense of place, and makes Michigan an attractive location for its current residents as well as future entrepreneurial growth. Through their support, the J.A. Woollam Foundation is giving Heart of the Lakes and its partners an opportunity to compound not only dollars raised, but also opportunities for Michigan’s future.
