Every year, the Western New York Land Conservancy transforms fragile landscapes into thriving natural sanctuaries, ensuring that 12,000 acres of forests, wetlands, and farmland in Western New York are protected for future generations. By permanently conserving these vital ecosystems, we empower communities, support biodiversity, and provide a lifeline for wildlife and people alike. Your support helps us safeguard this tangible, irreplaceable land, creating a lasting legacy of hope and resilience in Wales Center and beyond.

Through strategic land acquisitions and conservation easements, we protect critical habitats that serve as the backbone of Western New York’s environment. Our dedicated team has successfully preserved over 12,000 acres since 2000, restoring natural beauty and strengthening local ecosystems vulnerable to development and climate change. Every donation fuels ongoing efforts—whether it’s restoring wetlands, maintaining trails, or securing land that offers clean water, fresh air, and refuge for wildlife. Your gift directly empowers us to make immediate, measurable impact on our region’s ecological health.

Our vision is a future where vibrant natural landscapes continue to nurture communities, inspire outdoor recreation, and sustain local economies. By partnering with local farmers, schools, and volunteers, we foster a culture of conservation rooted in education and shared responsibility. When you donate today, you join a movement committed to preserving Western New York’s natural heritage—an enduring gift of dignity, hope, and environmental resilience for generations to come.
