Giving Tuesday, 2023

Please consider Orenda on Tuesday November 28^th, 2023 as we begin this gift-giving season! “Giving Tuesday,” which occurs annually on the first Tuesday after Thanksgiving, is a global generosity movement created in 2012 that inspires and celebrates collaboration and generosity.  The movement strives to build a world in which the power of generosity is at the heart of our actions.  Your generosity is what helps Orenda continue to save land and wildlife and what makes the world go round…

This Giving Tuesday consider making a gift to the Richard F. Boyden Internship Fund!

Orenda Wildlife Land Trust internships benefit youth interested in exploring and developing careers in conservation. The inability to earn money while engaging in an unpaid internship may prohibit qualified and deserving students from being able to participate in an internship opportunity with us.

Your generous Giving Tuesday contributions will help offset the cost of accepting an otherwise unpaid opportunity by providing stipends to qualified students, who have chosen to pursue meaningful experiential opportunities with Orenda Wildlife Land Trust, which might not otherwise be possible for them.

Our Internship Fund was created in 2023, in memory of our dear friend Richard F. Boyden, a lifelong conservationist, passionate educator and long-time Orenda Board member and sanctuary monitor. He will be dearly missed and fondly remembered!
