2010-11 Annual Report Western Virginia Land Trust

From the President and Executive Director This is our first published annual report presented to the public and our wonderful supporters. Each year we internally discuss our financial performance, develop a budget for the next year and make plans for continuing our mission of preserving Western Virginia’s farms, forests, waterways and special places. For 15 years we have paid for an annual external audit to confirm that we are meeting our fiduciary duties. Through our quarterly newsletters and press releases we have kept you informed of our accomplishments, and we have told the stories of many easement donors.

direct fundraising, special events, outreach and education, and stewardship. They man educational booths and have even been known to pour beer at outreach events to promote WVLT to a wider audience. All without compensation-- because they care. They know we make a difference.

Then there are our wonderful members, corporate friends and event sponsors. Simply put they keep us going. We are not supported by huge government grants or billion-dollar foundations.

If you look at our pie charts in the financial report you will see where we get our operating support.

It is from the few hundred individuals and local and regional businesses that come through for us year after year listed in this report. We can’t thank you enough, but we know that our children and their children will have a better Western Virginia to call home because you supported our efforts.

80,000 acres will become 100,000, then 200,000 acres. What a legacy…. and you make it possible!

This year for the first time we are presenting you with an official annual report. We hope to present our accomplishments, challenges and plans in such a way that you can get a feel for what we do, how we do it and where we are headed.

Your land trust has been around for 15 years and we remain a strong organization, with a board and staff ready and able to meet the challenges of the times, while always moving WVLT forward Sandy Light, President as our region’s leader in conservation.

We know we have done a great job of promoting conservation easements to protect private property from inappropriate development. 80,000 acres and counting is an amazing accomplishment Roger Holnback, Executive Director for an organization with only two paid staff. Our board members each give hours each month to direct staff efforts, attend 10 board meetings each year and then meet in committees to Photo: “Catawba Wildflowers” by Michael Kiernan
