Nonprofit Overview

Causes: Environment, Forest Conservation, Land Resources Conservation

Mission: The Shelter Island Fund (?Shelter Island?) was founded in 1998 to protect open space across Massachusetts through the limited development of otherwise developable land. Thousands of acres of Massachusetts? open space disappear annually, usually as a result of uncontrolled residential development. Few open space parcels contain natural habitats sufficiently unique and valuable to attract the kind of public or private funding that permits total site preservation. Shelter Island?s mission is to use site-sensitive and creative limited development strategies to help public and private land protection agencies conserve land with important open space, recreational, aesthetic and natural resource value that will otherwise be lost completely to residential development.
