The Three Rivers Conservation
Foundation was formed on October 10, 1997, for the purpose of providing
additional financial support to the Lee County Conservation Board. Increased
demands for conservation and recreation activities require additional funding.
The Three Rivers Conservation Foundation was formed to meet this need. The
Foundation allows people to make a tax-deductible donation for the support of
projects that otherwise would not be possible. The goal of the
Foundation will be to provide an endowment to the Lee County Conservation Board
to aid in the Board’s efforts to meet increasing demands on conservation and
recreation in the county. The Foundation will endeavor to raise $1.5 million
dollars to provide this assistance. You can become a contributing member to the
Three Rivers Conservation Foundation and provide your support for improved
conservation in Lee County. You can make a tax-exempt donation to
the Three Rivers Conservation Foundation:

Foundation is now a member of both the North Lee County Community Foundation
and the Keokuk Area Community Foundation. You may also make a donation
through these Community Foundations. A contribution to the Three
Rivers Conservation Foundation can do a great deal for conservation in Lee
County. The Lee County Conservation Board is charged with the responsibility of
managing county parks and wildlife areas, providing conservation education for
the public, assisting with habitat improvement on private lands and providing
for the recreational need of the people of Lee County. Your contribution can
purchase equipment or materials to help improve existing parks, buy seed or
trees to help improve wildlife habitat, assist with materials needed in
educational programming or help with the purchase of a unique natural area. All
of these are programs that you can support with your contribution.
The Foundation will also accept bequests. Arrangements can be made with your
attorney and the Foundation. If you have other questions about the Foundation,
or if you would like to specify how your money could be used please call Tom
Buckley at the Lee County Conservation Office.
