Expanding SLT's Conservation Efforts

We are proud to announce that the Shasta Land Trust is a recent recipient of the Department of Conservation Development Grant. In partnership with a grant from The McConnell Foundation, our organization was able to hire a new Associate Conservation Projects Manager to join the team.

This is a very exciting announcement for us because it will expand our capacity to do the work you as the donor care about the most. Which is protecting more beautiful land in Shasta County!

We are thrilled to welcome Deidre Monroe to Shasta Land Trust. She is responsible for developing and managing land protection projects, assessing potential conservation properties, grant writing, and assisting with the negotiations and drafting of conservation easements. Deidre earned her B.S. in Wildlife, Fish, and Conservation Biology from the University of California, Davis, and interned for the Truckee River Watershed Council.

As a small nonprofit, the addition of another skilled staff member makes a significant difference for Shasta Land Trust and the supporters like you who are truly responsible for making conservation possible! With Deidre on board we will be able to put your dollars to work in accomplishing more land protection in the area we all call home!
