Thanks to a generous gift from the Feigenbaum Foundation, Pleasant Valley Wildlife Sanctuary’s Opening Doors to Nature capital campaign is within $50,000 of its $1,125,000 goal.
According to a press release from Mass Audubon, the $100,000 grant will help improve Pleasant Valley’s accessibility, allowing the popular wildlife sanctuary in Lenox to welcome a broader and more diverse audience for outdoor recreation and creative nature-based education programs.
