You have the power to make a transformative impact on the landscape of New Mexico with a legacy gift to Conservation Voters New Mexico or CVNM Education Fund.
A charitable gift made through a will or other estate plan provides a critical source of financial support to CVNM and our family of organizations, helping ensure we can continue fighting for clean air, protected land, safe water, healthy wildlife, our democracy, and thriving diverse communities.
You may choose to give a gift through your will because:
- you can make a more significant gift down the road than you’re able to today
- you want to continue to make a difference to CVNM’s work and the landscape of New Mexico far beyond your lifetime
CVNM and our family of organizations, working with allies across New Mexico, have notched many conservation victories since our founding in 1970. With your support, we can continue crafting victories for generations to come.
No gift is too small. Every gift makes a difference!
Guiding Philosophy
CVNM’s Legacy Fund will build reserves to enable CVNM to take advantage of advocacy opportunities as they arise and keep our mission moving forward, even in times of financial uncertainty. The legacy fund will be managed locally by Longview Asset Management as a quasi-endowment, and will be invested according to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles, in keeping with our mission.
Luminaria Legacy Circle
If you let us know you’ve made provisions for CVNM in your will or estate plan, you become a treasured member of the Luminaria Legacy Circle. For a legacy giving intention form, click here.

Legacy gifts will help ensure that CVNM and its family of organizations can continue to fight for clean air, protected land, safe water, healthy wildlife, our democracy, and thriving diverse communities across New Mexico well into the future.
