Shirley Heinze Land Trust announced that it has received a generous pledge to its Capital Campaign from Lakeside Wealth Management, of Chesterton.

The goal of the organization’s campaign is to raise $3.5 million to advance the mission of protecting important habitats and ecosystems across Northwest Indiana. Funds raised will be used to protect an additional 500 acres of environmentally significant land in the region and support efforts to restore and maintain the 1,600 acres the organization already manages, along with promoting conservation awareness through educational programs and increased access to natural areas.

Tim Rice, President of Lakeside Wealth, and Chip Mang, Chief Investment Officer, recently stopped by the Meadowbrook Conservation Center offices of Shirley Heinze Land Trust to present Executive Director Kristopher Krouse with a symbolic check for the donation. “Lakeside understands the importance of Shirley Heinze Land Trust and the services they provide to the communities we live in. We are proud to support their efforts to protect the natural environment and we’re excited to see the wonderful things they will do in the future,” said Mang.

Krouse expressed gratitude on behalf of the organization. “We are very grateful for this support from Lakeside Wealth Management and other partners in the business community. Their contribution demonstrates a common commitment to our vision for a healthy and protected natural environment that adds to the quality of life here in Northwest Indiana,” he said.
