The darkest hour is just before the dawn.

Kathleen- DONATE NOW I love this time of year, and not just because of all the holiday cheer. Today is the Winter Solstice, when we have the shortest day and the longest night of the year. Why does that make me happy? Because for the next six months, every day will be a minute or two longer, and every night will have a minute or two less darkness. There is so much darkness in our world right now, from environmental disasters to climate change, to just about everything the Trump administration has done. But light is coming to push out the darkness, and we are fighting as hard as we can to ensure that it shines where it will do the most good. You know what Greenpeace is doing to prevent greedy corporate executives and corrupt politicians from spreading their darkness. We appreciate all you've done to help us, but at this time of transition from darkness to light, I'd like to ask you to do more. Please make a special cast-out-the-darkness contribution to Greenpeace now. And don't forget, your gift to Greenpeace could be doubled by a group of donors who will match it, dollar for dollar. Their offer is good up to a total of $167,000 in donations, but it only lasts until the end of the year. These donors made their offer in order to help us reach our 2017 fundraising goal of $3.25 million. Think of everything that money will do to expose the involvement between shady politicians and fossil fuel companies; to illuminate the fact that oil executives knew their companies were causing climate change decades ago and did nothing to stop it; to shine a spotlight on oil spills, habitat destruction, ground water poisoning, and all the other assaults on our planet and its oceans. Make that gift right now and your donation could be matched dollar-for-dollar, doubling the impact of your support. Sincerely, Sarah Rasmussen Digital Director, Greenpeace USA P.S. Time is running out. The matching gift offer is only good until midnight, December 31. Help us take full advantage of this important opportunity by making a contribution ASAP. Together, we can be a beacon to the world. Greenpeace never takes a dime from corporations or governments. Everything we do is thanks to the generous support of people like you!
