Donate Your Land

The Heritage Trust accepts two types of land gifts:

Trade Land

Trade land is land people donate to the Heritage Trust that is not suited for conservation. In such instances, LIHT can sell this property and use the proceeds to continue our mission to protect and preserve Lummi Island.

Conservation Land

Conservation Land is land people donate that meets LIHT’s conservation criteria and aligns with our strategic conservation goals. Such land is known as fee land. Donated conservation land can qualify as income tax donations and property tax relief if they benefit the public by permanently protecting important public conservation values and meet other federal tax code requirements. Potential donors should contact their own financial advisors for additional information.
