Join us. It’s Time to SAVE a Forest

Our $5 million fundraising effort to help secure the purchase of the Forest is nearing the finish line. If you want to contribute to the Forest purchase, the time is now!

The Forest Needs You – Right Now

As supporters, you’ve inspired us for five long years. By showing up at public meetings, cheering us on, writing letters, and, yes, donating. If you’ve already pledged or donated to our campaign to help purchase the Forest, thank you once gain. If not, this is your final call. Local benefactors are providing a generous match. Any donation made—right now—will be matched, dollar for dollar, up to an aggregate of $2.5 million, so your gift will have double the impact.

We’re grateful to the Community Foundation of New Jersey for serving as our fiscal partner in this fundraising campaign.
