Silvan Foundation

What is the Silvan Foundation?
Silvan is an environmental nonprofit which permanently preserves land: there is no commercial use of the land we preserve. Our mission is to permanenelty preserve land, and to help reduce carbon emissions.
​​
What does Silvan do?
Silvan buys land, and we accept land donations. Then we permanently preserve that land: no new roads,
buildings, logging, mining, agriculture, dams, extraction or resale. To support our mission we help people learn how to reduce their carbon emissions, and sell energy reduction products.
​​
How is Silvan different?
Silvan is a preservation organization. Unlike many conservation organizations, we preserve land entirely and permanently, rather than partially and temporarily.​ Also, Silvan doesn't rely solely on donations to further it's mission - we sell energy reduction products and invest the net revenue in land.
​​
Why land preservation?
We believe that some part of the planet needs to be preserved from human impact if all its species are to have a long term future.​
