How You Can Help
The Western Pennsylvania Conservancy’s work touches all parts of this region. Healthy rivers and streams, spectacular forests, parks, and natural areas, vibrant gardens, healthy shade trees in urban areas, protection of important habitats, and the stewardship of Fallingwater are made possible through the generosity of donors and volunteers. Your continued involvement will ensure that our work goes on. We encourage you to get more involved in one of the following ways:
Volunteer
We could not accomplish our work without the more than 13,000 volunteers who give their time and energy for land conservation, community garden and tree plantings and at Fallingwater each year. We welcome people of all ages to get involved in maintaining Western Pennsylvania’s wonderful quality of life. Please see our website at WaterLandLife.org for additional information.
Annual Fund
Annual fund gifts provide essential ongoing resources to support our daily operations and enable the Conservancy to carry out our mission throughout the year. WPC Conservation Champions and Fallingwater Preservation Partners provide dependable income for WPC and Fallingwater programs by making their annual gifts through convenient monthly deductions via credit card or direct debit from a designated financial account.
Leadership Circle
Members who make annual gifts of $1,000 or more are recognized through the Leadership Circle program. The Conservancy recognizes this significant commitment and provides “insider” access to our programs and insights into our plans throughout the year.
Evergreen Circle
Members of the Evergreen Circle have loyally supported the Conservancy for at least 15 out of the last 20 years. Their dedicated and continuous support over so many years has been a crucial part of our successful work. We are deeply grateful for those who support us each and every year.
Employee Matching Gift Program
Many companies and organizations will match their employees’ contributions, greatly increasing the impact of your gift to WPC. Please contact your human resources office for further information.
