Help Hannah Support Louisville Nature Center

Please support my fundraiser for the Louisville Nature Center and help shape the future of conservation.

When I first moved to Louisville, I was overwhelmed! I was in a completely new place and I didn't know anyone or know where anything was. My first summer in Lou, I started looking for places to explore and unwind. I stumbled upon LNC I found my home away from home. It's my go-to spot for trail running, a nice picnic, a garden walk, or a spot to just chill out and find some peace. It's important to me that LNC stays around to bring everyone a little slice of forest in the Lou Metro, so help me support them for this year's Give for Good!

The Louisville Nature Center (LNC) was founded in 1964 with a mission to promote and inspire environmental stewardship and to be a catalyst for conservation through environmental education and connection to nature for every person. Their vision is a community where everyone is inspired to be stewards of the natural world. 

Nature Education
LNC offers countless points of connection to nature for all people of all ages. There are kids of all ages learning and playing on our grounds 40+ weeks out of the year between summer camps, Swallowtail Forest School, and field trips.

Their trails are open year round and the offer public programming, guided hikes, workshops, and more to help adults explore nature in their own backyards. If you want to learn more about the outdoors in the heart of metro Louisville, the Louisville Nature Center is the place to do it!

Land Restoration

After 60 years, LNC remains a cornerstone of Louisville's conservation efforts, and their work is crucial for the prosperity of our community and the education of the next generation of environmental stewards.

As the city of Louisville continues to grow and has the fastest-growing urban heat island affect in the country, LNC needs a needs a high-quality nature center. They are prepared to cement their role as the hub of environmental education in Louisville now and in the future. 

Environmental Research

The Louisville Nature Center is proud to partner with research and academic institutions to contribute to a broader mission of conservation in Kentucky and around the globe. Currently, they are working with a team of researchers to catalog and tag endangered Eastern box turtles and learn how to halt their decline. LNC is in a unique position to become a haven for these animals, and working with tenured experts is what can help make that happen.

Please help me in supporting Louisville Nature Center in building a sustainable and long-lasting place for people of all ages to learn what it means to conserve and protect the environment right here at home.
