Strategic Philanthropy & Conservation Legacies

Resources Law Group has designed and implemented philanthropic efforts noted for their strategic focus, efficient management, and demonstrable results. Some of these efforts have unfolded on a breathtaking scale, involving massive landscapes and ecosystems, unique resources, and indescribable beauty. Others take place in a more intimate setting, with families or small communities protecting a ranch or a view with great local meaning.

We never view this work as mere pass-through of funding. What interests us — and, not coincidentally, our clients — is long-term protection of natural resources carried out alongside a client’s specific goals. We build systematic programs to ensure that funds are spent in the highest priority areas. We seek opportunities for leverage, helping our clients achieve greater conservation results by drawing additional funding (both private and public) whenever possible. We administer and monitor projects, flexibly adjusting strategies and tactics as opportunities and challenges arise. We communicate well and often. In addition, we work to find lessons and meaning in this work, for ourselves, and our clients.

Our work is easiest to understand by considering the projects we’ve led, or helped lead. To be very clear, we have been extraordinarily fortunate to work with great clients. These successes are theirs, and any list we offer is a reflection of their vision, commitment, and generosity. Our intent with these examples is simply to show that our work, quietly and effectively, has allowed great families and institutions to build lasting conservation legacies.
