NVCT, founded in 1994, is an award winning charity that saves nearby nature by helping local governments and private landowners voluntarily preserve natural areas, trails, streams and parks. NVCT is a non-profit, tax exempt 501 (c) 3 organization preserving natural and historic resources. Contributions are tax deductible.

Presently, we have preserved over 5,370 acres of Northern Virginia nature. The break down can be found here. We also have a dynamic educational program called Explore & Restore which has contributed more than 3800+ volunteer hours, and has led many wonderful excursions into the natural beauty that surrounds us everyday. Join us in preserving the most important parts of Northern Virginia, our nature and history.
