Leave a Legacy for Nature

Leave an Eternal Legacy for Finnish Nature

What do you want to leave behind? A will is a meaningful way to ensure that the things you care about endure for future generations. By leaving part of your estate to nature conservation, you create a lasting impact on Finland’s forests, lakeshores, and meadows, preserving them for generations to come.

A bequest to the Foundation for Better Nature is used directly for nature conservation—without intermediaries. The foundation acquires and protects land, restores degraded habitats, and creates new living spaces for endangered species. If you want your legacy to truly make a difference, a bequest to the foundation is a concrete and lasting act—an eternal safeguard for nature.

Why Include the Foundation in Your Will?

  • Make a real difference for nature – Our foundation doesn’t just protect nature; we restore it and ensure that your donation leads to concrete results.
  • Protect the nature that matters to you – The Päijänne region is at the heart of our work and holds special meaning for many donors. If you have a cherished forest or shoreline, we want to help protect it.
  • An eternal legacy for nature – Land bequeathed to the foundation is permanently protected. If a property does not meet conservation criteria, we restore it or use its value to protect another important area.
  • Funds go directly to conservation – As a nonprofit foundation, bequests are tax-exempt, meaning every euro benefits nature directly. All donations are used entirely for protecting nature in the Päijänne region.
  • A trustworthy and effective option – We work efficiently and transparently. Bequests enable permanent conservation efforts, and we ensure that your wishes are honored.

What Can You Bequeath?

  • Money or securities for conservation work
  • Forests, land, or water areas that can be protected or restored
  • Real estate or other assets, with proceeds used for nature conservation

The foundation gladly accepts even small land areas—they can be crucial habitats for endangered species.
