Tribute & Memorial Gifts: Celebrate the People and Events of Your Life

Click here to download a Tribute Form (385 kb).The connection between people and the places they love is strong and enduring. The open fields, cedar forests and craggy shorelines of Door County are the backdrop to the shared experiences that shape our lives.  These places are near and dear to our hearts and they say something about who we are – just like our families and friends and the special events of our lives do.

When you make a gift to the Door County Land Trust honoring a friend, family member, special event, or life of a loved one, your gift lasts as long as the land does – forever!

To make a gift to the Door County Land Trust in honor or memory of someone, please open a Tribute Form (385 kb)* that you can print and mail to us.


Honorees will receive the following recognition:

  • a special note informing them that a gift has been made in their name (but not the amount of the gift unless we receive instructions to share this information)-  Their family will be notified in the case of Memorial Gifts
     
  • a copy of the Door County Land Trust journal, Landings

     
  • the satisfaction of being part of a solution to protect Door County's most important resource... the land itself!

If you’d like, please feel free to send us a photo and a few words about the person(s) or event you’re commemorating and we will share with our members as many stories as room allows!

 

 

A Gift from the Heart

On November 18th, 2006, Ronald & I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary by renewing our wedding vows. Our two sons, family, and friends were in attendance as was the pastor who married us 25 years ago. It was a very special and memorable day for both of us. On the invitation for our renewal ceremony, we asked that in "lieu of gifts" donations be made to the Door County Land Trust. After all, how many silver bells or frames do we need? We agreed that the greatest gift anyone could give us would be a donation to the Land Trust, an organization very close to our hearts.


Over the past 15 years, we’ve fallen in love with Door County. What we most appreciate is the beauty and quietness of the land surrounding our cabin. We are firm believers in the Door County Land Trust and its mission to preserve and maintain the natural beauty of Door County. We are so pleased to be able to contribute a total of $325.00 to further its work.


Thanks again to the Land Trust for its foresight and vision and for all that it does as an organization to preserve Door County for future generations.


Sincerely,
Christine & Ronald Donovan
Geneva, IL
