We are proud to call Vermont our home and fortunate to do business where waters are clean, forests vibrant and communities strong. But Vermont is not immune to threats that jeopardize these natural and community resources.

The Corporate Conservation Council of Vermont (CCCV) is The Nature Conservancy's corporate giving organization in the state of Vermont. CCCV gives businesses a way to play a vital role in protecting our natural heritage.
