About Us

Legacy Land Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, was established in 2024 with a primary mission to help families across the United States maintain their working ranches and farms and, while doing so, create unique opportunities to support our country’s veterans and children. The foundation ensures that their land remains maintained and operated over time as intended and is utilized for meaningful purposes consistent with each family’s deeply held values.

Whether we are assisting families through challenging transitions, generational shifts, or simply those looking to donate portions of their land for the benefit of others, our diverse team of ranchers, business leaders, veterans, and subject matter experts customizes solutions for each unique situation to uphold our donors’ agricultural legacies in support of select, impactful nonprofits.

We help maintain working ranches and farms to follow the wishes of the owners who have spent their lives building these special places. Worth protecting and preserving for generations to come, we do it to prevent properties from ever being developed. Furthermore, we do it because assisting ranching and farming families through challenging transitions is a critical step to ensure their properties carry on indefinitely as they wish.

Vulnerable children need homes, help and healing more than ever before. Global human trafficking affects an estimated 40.3 million victims – one in every 1,000 worldwide. Children make up 27% of those victims, often escaping abusive households, child welfare system, juvenile detention, and homeless youth shelters only to land in the hands of abusers. Once rescued, survivors require special care to overcome physical and psychological challenges.

Veterans deserve a helping hand to navigate the rising challenges they face. Nearly 1 in 3 Iraq and Afghanistan veterans develop PTSD, 1 in 10 struggles with alcohol or drug abuse, and 1 in 10 outpatient appointments are scheduled to address depression, contributing a military suicide rate four times higher than combat deaths. We do this to help veterans reconnect with family, community and the workforce.

Legacy Land Foundation collaborates closely with organizations that provide meaningful and comprehensive support to veterans, rescued children, and rescued or retired animals within the therapeutic field. Through these strategic partnerships, we use donated land as a catalyst to advance the impactful missions of these valued organizations. Each property – ranch, farm, etc. – holds a unique opportunity and value within our nonprofit network.
