| ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: | TETON REGIONAL LAND TRUST'S (TRLT) MISSION IS TO CONSERVE WORKING FARMS AND RANCHES, FISH AND WILDLIFE HABITAT, AND SCENIC OPEN SPACES IN EASTERN IDAHO FOR THIS AND FUTURE GENERATIONS. FOUNDED IN 1990, WE STRATEGICALLY CONSERVE LANDS THAT PROTECT AND SUPPORT WILDLIFE HABITAT, RIVERS AND WETLANDS, AGRICULTURE AND OPEN SPACE - ALL CRITICAL TO THE SUSTAINABILITY OF THE GREATER YELLOWSTONE ECOSYSTEM. WE PRIMARILY PARTNER WITH LANDOWNERS, FEDERAL AND STATE AGENCIES, AND OTHER NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS. OUR SERVICE AREA CONTAINS SOME OF THE MOST RESOURCE-RICH PRIVATE LAND HABITATS IN THE GREATER YELLOWSTONE ECOSYSTEM AND COVERS SIX IDAHO COUNTIES, INCLUDING BONNEVILLE, CLARK, FREMONT, JEFFERSON, MADISON, AND TETON, AND A SMALL PORTION OF TETON COUNTY, WYOMING, WEST OF THE TETON MOUNTAIN RANGE. TO CARRY OUT OUR MISSION, OUR PROGRAMS INCLUDE LAND PROTECTION, STEWARDSHIP, HABITAT RESTORATION, PUBLIC EDUCATION, AND OUTREACH. SPECIAL PROJECTS AND INITIATIVES INCLUDE THE GREATER SANDHILL CRANE INITIATIVE AND THE TETON VALLEY TRUMPETER SWAN PROJECT. TRLT WAS THE FIRST LAND TRUST TO BE ACCREDITED IN IDAHO IN 2008. WE WORK WITH ONE OF OUR EASEMENT LANDOWNERS TO FACILITATE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT AND WORK WITH THE REGENERATIVE AGRICULTURE FOCUSED GRAZING LESSEE TO ENSURE VIABLE AGRICULTURAL OPERATION IN CONCERT WITH HABITAT AND WILDLIFE PROTECTION. THE TETON REGIONAL LAND TRUST HOLDS CONSERVATION EASEMENTS ON OVER 43,000 ACRES WITHIN THE GREATER YELLOWSTONE ECOSYSTEM. IT ALSO AFFORDS PROTECTIONS AND SUSTENANCE FOR SIGNIFICANT NATIVE WILDLIFE THAT MAKE THIS AREA THEIR HOME. THIS AREA IN EASTERN IDAHO IS ALSO HOME TO NUMEROUS RANCHERS AND FARMERS, WHO ARE PROTECTING THEIR LEGACIES BY PLACING CONSERVATION EASEMENTS ON THEIR PROPERTIES. OVER THE LAST 35 YEARS, TRLT HAS WORKED ON OVER 178 PROJECTS IN EASTERN IDAHO TO PERMANENTLY PROTECT 43,825 ACRES THROUGH 163 CONSERVATION EASEMENTS, 5 TRLT FEE TITLE PROJECTS, AND 10 FACILITATED FEE ACQUISITIONS. THIS EQUATES TO 170 PROTECTED PROPERTIES THAT REPRESENT KEY LINKAGES IN MIGRATION PATHS FOR BIG GAME, WHICH ARE CONSIDERED SOME OF THE MOST PRODUCTIVE AREAS FOR WILDLIFE. IN ADDITION, WE HAVE RELEASED 64 TRUMPETER SWANS AS PART OF OUR TETON VALLEY TRUMPETER SWAN PROJECT, AND WE SECURED 660 ACRES OF CRUCIAL FOOD RESOURCES FOR STAGING SANDHILL CRANES. TRLT HAS WORKED ON 28 RESTORATION PROJECTS IN THE REGION AND HAS DEVELOPED AND OPENED FOUR AREAS FOR PUBLIC ACCESS AND EDUCATION THROUGH INTERPRETIVE SIGNAGE. WE HOST THE GREATER YELLOWSTONE SANDHILL CRANE FESTIVAL IN THE REGION, WHICH WE STARTED IN 2018. IN THE LAST FIVE YEARS, TRLT SECURED $12,145,000 OF FEDERAL FUNDS FOR LAND PROTECTION ($7.2M NRCS AGRICULTURAL LAND EASEMENTS, $1M NORTH AMERICAN WETLAND CONSERVATION ACT, AND $3.84M LAND AND WATER CONSERVATION FUND). IN ADDITION, TRLT COMPLETED A $10M LEGACY OF LAND CAPITAL CAMPAIGN IN 2022. THIS CAMPAIGN BOLSTERED TRLT'S CONSERVATION ACTION FUND, STEWARDSHIP ENDOWMENT, AND ONGOING PROGRAMMATIC WORK TO ENSURE ADVANCEMENT ON OUR MISSION. THE CAMPAIGN SECURED CASH GIFTS, PLEDGES, AND BEQUESTS TOTALING MORE THAN $11M, ILLUSTRATING TRLT'S IMPORTANCE AND CREDIBILITY IN OUR LOCAL COMMUNITIES. IN 2025, TRLT LAUNCHED A NEW CAMPAIGN TO RAISE $1.25M FOR THE GREATER YELLOWSTONE SANDHILL CRANE INITIATIVE. BY THE END OF THE YEAR, TRLT PROJECTS IT WILL HAVE RAISED MORE THAN $750K TO CONTINUE TO PROTECT AND RESTORE VITAL HABITAT, PROVIDE SUPPLEMENTAL FOOD PLOTS FOR CRANES, MONITOR CRANE POPULATIONS, AND RAISE AWARENESS IN OUR COMMUNITIES ABOUT CRANE CONSERVATION THROUGH THE GREATER YELLOWSTONE CRANE FESTIVAL AND CRANES IN THE CLASSROOM. THE TETON REGIONAL LAND TRUST'S COMMITMENT TO CONSERVING AND PROTECTING NATURE'S 'ONE TIME ONLY OFFER' RECEIVES OVER 80% OF ITS FUNDING THROUGH THE GENEROSITY OF INDIVIDUAL DONORS. THESE SUPPORTERS REMAIN STEADY AND DEDICATED IN THEIR COMMITMENT YEAR AFTER YEAR, NOT ONLY FROM THEIR WALLETS, BUT ALSO BY PARTICIPATING IN VOLUNTEER WORKDAYS AND SPECIAL EVENTS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. AS IT ENTERS ITS 35TH YEAR IN 2025 THE TETON REGIONAL LAND TRUST'S FINANCIAL CONDITION IS STRONG AND CONTINUES TO GROW THROUGH THE STEWARDSHIP OF ITS DEDICATED STAFF AND CONSTANT COMMITMENT OF ITS DONORS. |
