The North Shore Land Alliance Heritage Committee is a community of bright and energetic young professionals in their 20’s and 30’s who share a common bond of loving nature and knowing that their action is critical to protecting it for future generations.

This group comprises a wonderful cross-section of people who grew up on Long Island and others who have chosen to make our community their home. Our Heritage Committee works to ensure that the next generation understands the importance of land conservation and its relationship to clean air, clean water, our local food source and climate change mitigation at local, regional and global levels. Throughout the year, the Committee organizes one or two friend-raisers to educate more young professionals about the work of the Land Alliance, to meet other like-minded individuals, and to find ways they can enrich our communities.

For more information about the Land Alliance Heritage Committee, please contact Jenny Einhorn at jenny@northshorelandalliance.org or 516-922-1028.
