Support the Trail

Memberships have privileges

Recurring yearly memberships allow us to best communicate with you and offer you updated information on the trails including the digital mapset and gpx track.

Ways to make a donation

  • Give through our website or mail us a check
  • Donations from IRAs – If you are making Required Minimum Distributions from your IRA, a Qualified Charitable Distribution to BFTA is not taxed as income.
  • Stocks, Bonds, and Mutual Funds Donation – Compared to donating cash, donating long-term appreciated stocks could decrease your tax liability in addition to providing a gift to BFTA.
  • Ask your employer if they participate in a “matching gifts program.”
  • Contribute to BFTA through a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF), if you have one.
  • Consider a bequest to BFTA as part of your legacy giving.
