Black Mountain Conservancy Charity Profile

The Black Mountain Conservancy, a nonprofit, 501(c)(3) land trust, works with other land preservation organizations, such as the Desert Foothills Land Trust, to moderate development on the mountain. We raise money to purchase land, we sponsor awareness programs, we support the efforts of the towns of Carefree and Cave Creek to pass ordinances that protect hillsides and contain development, and we encourage landowners who want to build on the mountain to blend their homes into the environment.

The 250-acre preserve at the top of Black Mountain provides a vital habitat for native plants and wildlife, which are disappearing at an alarming rate throughout this region of the Sonoran Desert, due to encroaching development. The Black Mountain Conservancy’s goal is to protect this preserve by keeping as much of the surrounding mountain as possible in its natural state.
