A Letter from the Board
The Kensington Conservancy works to abate the threats that will permanently impact the lands and waters of the North Channel. We work to achieve this mission though land protection, aquatic and terrestrial habitat restoration and through education and outreach on best environmental management practices. Preeminent conservationist Aldo Leopold once said that conservation will never become real and lasting unless it becomes part of the day-to-day practice of people. The Kensington Conservancy strives to be more than just a land trust. Our goal is to create a “culture of conservation” in our community. A community that includes both year-round and seasonal residents. A community that includes local governments, businesses, and schools. A community that transcends generations. Collectively, a community that is a group of caring people embracing conservation as part of their daily lives.
Our work is neither about dollars raised, acres preserved nor species protected. Rather, in the end, it’s about our ability as a community of people to protect a natural and priceless legacy we were left so that our children and grandchildren will be left with a legacy at least as good. Our accomplishments will be measured in breathtaking views, clean water and by the width of a grandchild’s smile reeling in his first fish.
We know you share our love for this special place. The Kensington Conservancy relies solely upon the support of donors and its members and you’re integral to the success of our mission. By joining the Kensington Conservancy, you will be welcomed into a family of dedicated individuals committed to saving the natural legacy of the North Channel. We can’t do this without YOU – every gift matters!
