Why Your Support Matters

The Sasquanaug Conservancy for Southport, Inc. is an all-volunteer organization fully funded by contributions from members and donors. Our mission, deeply rooted in the preservation and enhancement of Southport’s historical and natural beauty, continues to thrive thanks to the support of our dedicated members, donors, and volunteers.

If you’re not yet a donor, member, or volunteer, please consider joining us! Here’s a snapshot of how your support fuels our mission forward:

Preserve Historical Heritage

Financial support allows us to safeguard landmarks, like the Robinson Cottage and Southport School, and furthers our mission of protecting Southport’s rich history.

Environmental Conservation

Membership dues support the upkeep and expansion of the green spaces we maintain throughout town, such as Southport Park, contributing to a healthier, greener community.

Community Advocacy and Improvement

Our advocacy efforts, especially when it involves opposing development, often requires us to enlist legal counsel. Through financial contributions, we are able to hire experts to best represent our interests.

Community and Cultural Events

Throughout the year, SCS puts on multiple programs for our community that not only enrich our understanding of Southport’s history and environment, but also foster a strong sense of community. These events, many of which are now deeply ingrained in Southport’s culture, are made possible through volunteers and donations.
