Why Monthly Giving Matters
At The Land Trust for Tennessee, we believe that protecting land is one of the most meaningful ways to care for our state, now and for the future. But conservation doesn’t happen overnight. It takes commitment, planning, and steady support.
That’s where our Heart of Tennessee monthly donor community comes in.
When you give monthly, you’re not just making a donation. You’re helping power land conservation work all year long. Here’s how recurring giving makes a big difference:

1. It Provides Steady, Reliable Support
Land conservation requires long-term thinking. Knowing we can count on monthly gifts allows us to plan for the future and stay focused on our mission, even when challenges arise.
2. We Can Act Fast When Land Is at Risk
Some conservation opportunities are urgent. Recurring donations help us move quickly when land becomes available before it’s lost to development.


3. It Reduces Costs and Maximizes Impact
Monthly giving is efficient. With less time and money spent on fundraising, more of your donation goes directly to conserving the farms, forests, and open spaces you love.
4. It Adds Up Over Time
Even a modest monthly gift can have a major impact. A donation of $25/month becomes $300 a year—enough to help us reach more landowners, complete more projects, and care for the land we’ve already protected.


5. It Shows a Lasting Commitment to Tennessee
Monthly donors are some of our most loyal supporters. Their ongoing gifts reflect a deep love for Tennessee’s landscapes and a shared vision for the future.
