The Cause
As past presidents of the Finger Lakes Land Trust, Brad and Jim’s goal is to raise funds for the Land Trust’s stewardship initiatives and to raise awareness of the need for land conservation nationwide. The route will pass through some of America’s most scenic and ecologically important sites, the protection of which ranges from the level of the national government to small local land trusts.
The fund raising goal for this trip is $25,000 which will be used to launch new stewardship initiatives for the Land Trust, thereby allowing the organization to sustain the success of its first twenty years into the next decade and beyond. To encourage others to emulate his support of land conservation in the Finger Lakes region, the family of Albert B. Craig, Jr. has generously made a matching challenge grant of $12,000. Every dollar raised is matched one-to-one up to $12,000!

The Finger Lakes Land Trust is a membership supported, non-profit land conservation organization dedicated to protecting the lands that define the character of the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. Incorporated in 1989, the Land Trust has protected a total of 10,000 acres of land through the establishment of nature preserves, the use of conservation easement agreements on private lands, and through providing technical assistance and educational programs to local governments, landowners and the general public.
