The Land Trust received its first bequest in 1999 from the estate of Michael Meunier, who passed away in 1997. It's in Michael's memory and for his love of Minnesota's beautiful lands that the Minnesota Land Trust launched the Land Legacy Society. By including the Minnesota Land Trust in your will or other estate plans, you will help protect Minnesota's scenic lands and waters for future generations.

To request a copy of the Minnesota Land Trust's Leave A Legacy information packet, which includes sample will language, please contact Wally Abramson at 651-647-9590, or by email here.

We also recommend that you contact the Minnesota Council on Foundations and request the "Minnesota Tool Kit for Giving," by calling the Council at (612) 338-1989 or by logging on to www.minnesotagiving.org. You can also learn more about planned giving through Leave a Legacy(TM) Minnesota's Web site at www.leavealegacyminnesota.org.
