We greatly appreciate any and all donations. All of us are volunteers, and donations are a key ingredient in the mix that helps enhance our activism. Just some of the ways we use your money: Pursue vital environmental issues in our area and beyond; send a disadvantaged youngster to NY Department of Environmental Conservation summer camp for a week; pay for materials used in education, demonstrations, or communicating with public officials.

Recurring (Sustaining) Tax-Deductible Donations

Many supporters of social, environmental, religious or other educational or charitable organizations use recurring donations, such as monthly. This is a way of demonstrating commitment for giving that assures regularity of support and is relatively painless for the donor and valuable for the receiving organization.

At this time, we are checking with the Sierra Club Foundation about how to be a monthly donor and have that tax deductible donation come to Lower Hudson Group, rather than go into the general Foundation funds, so please make your one-time tax deductible donation through the link above for now.

Thank you for considering making your donation a recurring one.
