LightHawk
Flying To Save The Earth
LightHawk flies to save the earth. Why LightHawk Exists - We know that excellent conservation work can be done with aircraft - and that most conservation groups don't understand how. And, once they do, it seems unaffordable to them. What We Do - Our conservation professionals identify significant conservation issues with and work with leading conservation partner organizations. We co-design effective flight campaigns where aviation can quickly accelerate the work to more quickly achieve significant outcomes. How We Do It - Once campaigns are designed, we leverage a nationwide network of more than 280 highly experienced volunteer pilots to flights affordable by donating their time, aircraft, expertise and fuel. We provide flight to our partners without charge because of the charitable support of our pilots.Conservation Portfolio - Conserving Landscapes, Protecting Oceans and Coastlines, Ensuring Species Survival, Safeguarding Rivers, and Guiding Smart Growth

- DonateStock is the trusted facilitator of charitable gifts of securities, crypto and other non-cash assets for more than 10,000 nonprofits and donors.
- To better serve our stock and crypto donors, we host giving pages (like this one) so they can donate securities and crypto to other nonprofits from their DonateStock account.
- As this specific nonprofit has not yet registered with us, the donation will be processed and paid by Donatestock Charitable, Inc, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
- Once the gift is initiated, we will contact the nonprofit beneficiary to inform them of the gift and arrange payment.
- After the gift is received, we will provide a tax receipt to the donor and send the proceeds, gift details and donor information to the nonprofit beneficiary.
- Payments are normally sent via ACH within 2 weeks of receiving the shares or crypto. If we cannot reach the nonprofit beneficiary within 30 days, we will remit payment by check.
- There is no cost to donors or financial advisors. Nonprofits are charged a modest transaction fee that is in line with (or lower than) other online gifts.
