Non-Profits

The vision of the Jefferson Trust is to allow great ideas at the University of Virginia to come to fruition and demonstrate the powerful benefits of donor-led, university-based grantmaking.  The Jefferson Trust endowment now totals nearly $40 million and the organization has made more than 250 grants since its inception.

D&R Greenway Land Trust has saved over 21,000 acres of New Jersey land since its founding in 1989.  By preserving land for life and creating public trails, it gives everyone the opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors.  The land trust’s preserved farms and community gardens provide local organic food for our neighbors—including those most in need.  Through strategic land conservation and stewardship, D&R Greenway combats climate change, protects birds and wildlife, and ensures clean drinking water for future generations. D&R Greenway’s mission is centered in connecting land with people from all walks of life.
