Ways to Give
Your support plays a vital role in helping the Hopkinton Land Trust protect the open spaces that define our community. Whether it’s a one-time donation, a monthly gift, or a legacy contribution, every act of generosity helps us preserve the natural beauty, ecological health, and rural character of Hopkinton for generations to come. There are many ways to get involved—and every gift, no matter the size, makes a lasting difference.
How to Give
Gifts of Cash
Most cash donations are deductible up to 50% of your adjusted gross income, providing you with immediate tax benefits. Your donation can directly support the Land Trust’s efforts to conserve land and engage the community.
Gifts of Stock
By donating appreciated stock, you qualify for a deduction equal to the value of the stock, and you can avoid paying capital gains tax. This is an efficient way to give while benefiting from tax savings.
Gifts of Property
Donating property—whether land, buildings, or other assets—can allow you to avoid capital gains tax and earn a charitable deduction. This is a powerful way to contribute to land conservation while benefitting from tax savings.
Bequests
Including the Hopkinton Land Trust in your will is a meaningful way to ensure your legacy continues. There is no limit on the amount you can leave to charitable organizations, and your bequest is free from estate tax.
Land Donation
By donating land or a conservation easement, you can help protect Hopkinton’s open spaces for future generations. Learn more about your options.
Give Your Time
Volunteering is another valuable way to support the Land Trust’s mission. Join our Friends Group and participate in work parties, educational events, and more.
We would be honored by your support. Please don’t hesitate contact us if you have any questions or would like to discuss how you can make a difference.
