PLT Endowment Campaign

Since PLT’s founding, Central Massachusetts has become increasingly more developed. Through efforts of PLT, organizational partners, Town leaders and volunteers, Princeton has thus-far managed to maintain the natural beauty that draws residents and visitors alike and protects our environment. To continue conservation efforts, PLT requires resources, including volunteers, partners, and funds.

In 2024, PLT established a Permanent Endowment Fund to provide income to support PLT’s increasing operating expenses—from land management and land surveying to marketing and record keeping, to accounting, taxes, and legal. These expenses are in addition to land acquisition costs.

PLT is thrilled to share that an Anonymous Donor has offered to match new contributions to PLT’s Endowment Fund up to $100,000!  Through prudent investment, such an endowment fund should generate sufficient income to support the operations of the PLT.

To kick off this matching gift fundraising campaign, PLT’s current trustees have each committed funds to the Endowment Fund. While this gets us part way to our goal, we need your help to reach the total $200,000 in funds raised. Together, we can amplify this gift, PLT’s Permanent Endowment Fund, and the preservation of Princeton.
