In-Kind Giving

Equipment & In-Kind Giving

Put tools, materials, and expertise to work on the land.

Gifts in kind multiply impact

Heart-J Center welcomes donations of equipment, materials, and professional services from businesses, ranches, manufacturers, retailers, and individuals. These gifts directly reduce operating costs while increasing the reach and quality of conservation, education, and veterans programs.

A donated skid steer, a trailer of lumber, a day of veterinary care, or a season of native seed can all become measurable progress on the ground.
