OTHER WAYS TO DONATE

In addition to tax-deductible donations, the Ventura Hillsides Conservancy accepts other gifts. Here are some other ways you can donate:

In-kind Gifts

This includes equipment, furniture and materials necessary for the successful operations of the Conservancy. Please see our wish list page on the Web site to see how you can help.

Gifts of Financial Assets

Financial assets can include cash, stock, mutual funds or life insurance policies.

Gifts of Real Estate

A donation of land to the Conservancy can result in significant tax benefits and the transaction is usually easier to complete than selling the land. We have professionals who will work with you to complete the transaction. Real estate that has little or no open space value will be sold, so the Conservancy can use the gift to purchase and protect other open space lands. Open space lands will be protected through the land stewardship program.

Including The Conservancy in Your Will or Trust

You can name the Ventura Hillsides Conservancy, a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization, as a beneficiary in your will or trust:
  • A donation may have positive tax implications for your heirs by minimizing estate taxes (there is a tax deduction for charitable giving)
  • Your gift will reflect your set of values and will be put to work in preserving the natural and scenic resources of the Ventura region
  • Your gift or bequest can be named in honor or memory of a family, loved one or friend
The Ventura Hillsides Conservancy has professional volunteers ready to discuss these methods of planned giving. Please contact us at 643-8044 or at donate@venturahillsides.org. We will be happy to meet with you and discuss these creative gifting strategies.
