75 Years of Ben Lawers

This year, the National Trust for Scotland celebrates 75 years of caring for Ben Lawers National Nature Reserve. With seven munros (mountains over 3,000 ft), a treasure trove of archaeological remains, and wildlife including majestic red deer, ptarmigan, and golden ringed dragonflies, this breathtaking landscape is a special place for nature lovers, adventurers, and history enthusiasts alike.

In recognition of this significant milestone, NTSUSA is raising $75,000 to help the Trust protect Ben Lawers for the next 75 years – and beyond! The Jeniam Foundation has pledged to match all gifts to Ben Lawers dollar-for-dollar up to a total of $30,000, doubling the impact of your gift!
