Special Projects

Our goal is to protect 100 acres of land per year in Westport! Projects do vary and WLCT often must raise funds to acquire, steward or protect properties in perpetuity. Each year we have a variety of projects a donor. A donor can contribute to the suite of special projects or designate their gift to a specific project. More information about our current special projects can be found below. If you are interested in supporting a specific project, our Executive Director or Director of Special Projects can provide more information and can be reached by calling (508) 636-9228.
