North Florida Land Trust Announces $100,000 Fundraising Match for End-of-Year Campaign

Donors can now double their impact for the nonprofit land conservation organization by contributing to the fundraising campaign

Jacksonville, Fla., Nov. 18, 2025 – North Florida Land Trust is giving supporters an opportunity to double their gifts and their impact through its end-of-year fundraising campaign. Heather and Herve Devos, along with two anonymous donors, have pledged a combined $100,000 match to help NFLT reach its $500,000 goal by December 31. Every dollar donated up to $100,000 will be matched dollar-for-dollar, amplifying the power of every gift to protect North Florida’s natural landscapes.

“Without the support of our donors, our work to safeguard the salt marshes, pine forests, and waterways that define North Florida would not be possible,” said Allison DeFoor, president and CEO of NFLT. “Our supporters fuel our work to plant, protect and preserve. We hope this $100,000 match will motivate others to donate to this campaign, because it is now or never. The Florida we save today is the Florida we will have tomorrow.”

NFLT depends entirely on community contributions to cover its operating costs. The funds raised through the 2025 year-end campaign will increase the unrestricted mission support funds, allowing NFLT to continue protecting and preserving Florida’s irreplaceable landscapes. To donate, visit NFLT.org, send a check to NFLT at 843 W. Monroe St., Jacksonville, FL, 32202, or contact the nonprofit at (904) 479-1967.

A donation of $45 or more enrolls supporters in NFLT’s membership program, which offers meaningful ways to stay connected and engaged. There are six membership levels, from the $1,000-and-up Champion level to the $45 Friend level. Each level offers unique benefits, including exclusive member events, early access to NFLT news and publications, and access to exclusive NFLT merchandise.
