Cares for a Cause is our way of giving back to our community. Every month, Image in a Box donates to a local nonprofit picked by one of our team members. Jacob chose the Land Trust of North Alabama for February!
About the Land Trust of North Alabama
The Land Trust of North Alabama is a nonprofit organization with a passion for preserving North Alabama's beautiful natural landscape. As Alabama's first land trust, they work with city officials to purchase and protect more than 9,000 acres of undeveloped land in the North Alabama area. These parcels of land are then designated as scenic nature trails, habitats for rare species, and outdoor spaces for educational enrichment for children.
The Land Trust of North Alabama is supported by generous members and volunteers across our community. They have won numerous awards for their work since their founding in 1987 and continue to work with local leaders to preserve more of North Alabama's untouched wilderness.
Why Jacob Chose the Land Trust of North Alabama
As an avid hiker and outdoor enthusiast, Jacob loves spending time outside at our local trails. He says,
"It's more important now than ever to get outside. The Land Trust of North Alabama preserves natural lands for the free enjoyment of everyone. They have preserved more than 9,000 acres of land, maintain over 70 miles of trails, and even help protect endangered and threatened species. One of my favorite things to do is enjoy the trails at the various local preserves and that would not be possible without the Land Trust."
