In March 2021 , Rainforest Trust received news of a most generous legacy gift . Margaret Gordon Harley had bequeathed her family home in Ohio to Rainforest Trust . A true lover of nature and animals , Margaret was a dedicated environmentalist . Her lifelong study of wildlife and nature was evident in her extensive collection of books and movies . Margaret wanted to make a difference in the world . She cared greatly about the future of our planet , its species and biodiversity . The proceeds from the sale of her family home will have a lasting impact for generations to come across the tropics . And Margaret ’ s memory will live on in all that we accomplish as a result of her generous gift .
