CILTI preserves the best of Central Indiana’s natural areas, protecting plants and animals, so Hoosiers can experience the wonder of the state’s natural heritage. Our organization is a member of Indiana Land Protection Alliance and is nationally accredited by the Land Trust Alliance Commission. CILTI works closely with the Indiana Department of Natural Resources. We proudly partner with the Division of Nature Preserves, The Nature Conservancy and many land trusts from across the state in our land protection efforts. To guide our work, we have developed a strategic conservation plan that blends landscape, plant community and species-based methodologies. Our approach is three-tiered, as we strive to: -protect land of local or community significance* -assist partners with their priority lands** -preserve core conservation areas (our main focus) How We Work: The Central Indiana Land Trust has protected more than 5,500 acres of Indiana’s natural heritage since 1990. This protection usually takes one of three forms: -We own and manage nature preserves. After receiving donations of land or buying land, we manage those lands as preserves for the benefit of the public. -We hold conservation easements. We forge legal agreements with willing landowners to protect their land by restricting certain activities and conserving conservation values forever. -We form management agreements. We help landowners develop and implement stewardship plans that protect their properties’ unique conservation values. *Land of local or community significance includes properties that may be less valuable from an ecosystem standpoint, but are meaningful projects because of their special features or importance to the community. **Partners’ priority lands might be owned by organizations like another land trust, state DNR or a local park system. Our role may be different depending on the situation.

Our Mission is to assist donors to build an enduring source of charitable assets to benefit Ripley County. A community foundation is a vehicle for people of all means to make a lasting difference in their community. The central purpose is to serve the needs and philanthropic aims of donors who wish to better their community, now and in the future. In 1990, Lilly Endowment Inc. of Indianapolis, through their GIFT (Giving Indiana Funds for Tomorrow) Initiative encouraged all counties in Indiana to create community foundations to serve their residents. The Ripley County Community Foundation, Inc. was formed in February 1997. The effort to create the Foundation was a result of the vision of a group of philanthropic minded Ripley County residents who wanted to improve the quality of life for Ripley County residents. The growth of the Foundation through the years has been encouraged not only by Lilly Endowment Inc. but by Rising Sun Regional Foundation. Both Foundations have consistently offered the Foundation opportunities for growth through their grants, training and leadership. The residents of Ripley County have responded to the Foundation by creating endowment funds and or giving to established funds to support the charitable organizations in the County and to give back to the County in a way that will forever change the County for the good of all.
