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