WAYS TO GIVE

Donate Appreciated Stock

Invest in the air you breathe, the water you drink, and the lands and wildlife you love

What is it about Idaho? The stunning wilderness and thousands of miles of pristine rivers? Endless opportunities for outdoor recreation? Access to clean air, clean water, and unsullied open spaces? As an Idaho-grown group, we rely entirely on the generosity of individuals, businesses, and foundations to do our work. You can show your support for Idaho—and maximize your impact and minimize your tax liability—by donating appreciated stock to support ICL’s vital work. Your contribution is an investment in the air you breathe, the water you drink, and the lands and wildlife you hold dear.

Stocks, bonds, and mutual funds

Consider making a lasting impact on Idaho’s natural beauty by contributing appreciated stocks, mutual funds, or bonds to the Idaho Conservation League (ICL). Not only does this method of giving showcase your commitment to preserving our environment, but it may also offer you substantial tax benefits by reducing your capital gains tax burden.

What Your Support Means to Us

Life in Idaho is special — based on clean air and water, abundant wildlife, world-class recreation, and communities that support each other. Yet Idaho is changing fast. Every day, pristine habitat and wild places are being lost forever. The environmental safeguards we used to take for granted—like the Clean Water Act—have been undermined, putting more pressure on local communities. The Idaho Conservation League knows how to succeed in protecting Idaho’s environment, and has done so over the past 50 years, but we can only do it with your support. Please support our work today, and help ensure that the Idaho way of life stays special for now and future generations.
