Help steward Red Lake
With your support, we recently conserved 118 acres with pristine public access to over 2,000 feet of Red Lake’s Shoreline – Forever!
This special place provides critical habitat for wildlife, protects water quality, preserves scenic shoreline views, and gives us all a place to enjoy and learn about this Indian River Lake.
Please support the stewardship team's efforts in preparing the property with boundary signs, trails, and kiosks and the ongoing stewardship of this beautiful community property.

We chose to provide a gift of real estate because we believe in Indian River Lakes Conservancy’s mission.
The world is in such chaos globally, so the best way we know to help us all to create a more sane and sustainable society is to support strong, visionary local organizations. We trust them to protect the local watershed for generations to come.
