Kathleen-

We've had some really important days recently, Earth Day and Giving Tuesday Now. Both were days about healing the earth and our futures.

Even if you haven't had a chance to donate yet, I want to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being part of our global Greenpeace community. That's why Greenpeace staff from around the world put together this video. I hope you will give it a watch. 

Watch the video

When I watched it I could feel I'm part of something that's so much bigger than myself.

As a global community, what we do in the US has implications worldwide. So here in the US, we're leveling up all our work by:

  • Investigating and exposing polluter bailouts and regulatory rollbacks during this crisis.
  • Putting the health of people and planet first in all recovery and relief efforts.
  • Setting a vision for the future that understands that the old ways weren't working — that there is no return to "normal," and that we can take this opportunity to move beyond the broken systems of the past.
  • Breaking free from single-use plastics with food delivery systems based on safe and sustainable sanitation systems to support reusable to-go containers and cups.
  • Defending our oceans and ancient forests, and all of our work for a safe and healthy planet.

A group of benefactors has taken note of our movement, and they know the COVID-19 crisis has hurt our ability to raise funds. So they have offered a matching gift challenge to all of us, and we need to raise $260,000 to meet their challenge. When you donate before May 31st, your donations will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $260,000. We don't want to leave any money on the table, please join us.

You can make the dollar-for-dollar match go even further. Monthly giving is one of the best ways you can support Greenpeace. When you join Greenpeace as a monthly supporter, you'll become part of a millions-strong global community of people working round the clock to protect the planet we all depend on and hold the line against the oil industry. Make a monthly gift today and your first three gifts will be matched up to $260,000. Please chip in what you can.

We know the months ahead will challenge all of us in new ways. We know that polluters and their allies in government won't quit. But knowing that you're with us, I know we'll continue to hold the line, fight the good fight, and stay strong. 

Thank you for your support,

Annie Leonard
Executive Director, Greenpeace USA

P.S. I hope you'll take 2 minutes to give this thank you video a watch and feel how deeply grateful I am to you and your support.

Greenpeace never takes a dime from corporations or governments. Everything we do is thanks to the generous support of people like you!
