in Vermont's Cold Hollow Mountains
2024 Giving Tuesday Fundraiser
This Holiday season, Cold Hollow to Canada has launched a Giving Tuesday Fundraiser Campaign. Every contribution -large or small- brings us closer to our goal.
CHC has been awarded a two-year grant from the Vermont Housing and Conservation Board in the amount of $175,000 to increase staff capacity. This timely investment is based on our shared success and allows CHC to hire its first ever full-time executive director, completely focused on the mission of stewarding and conserving forestland in the CHC region - for people and wildlife. This amazing opportunity to expand our capacity and accelerate our critical work in the region comes with a challenge: matching the award with an additional $25,000 with the help of our community and friends. With your support, we hope to get a jump on that goal and raise $5,000 on Giving Tuesday. In the coming year, CHC's Board and Staff will embark on drafting a new 5-year strategic plan to bring us to our foundational 2030 goal, and with a new Executive Director in place, Cold Hollow to Canada will be able to accelerate our conservation work, grow our partnerships, and raise the money necessary to re-capitalize our Conservation Fund. Your support towards this fundraiser goal will help CHC continue to grow strong roots and establish itself as a leader in protecting the places you love, today and for generations to come.
