Dear Lorelei,
I'm Julie, 350.org's Development Director. You haven't heard from me much in my seven years at 350.org, but I'm writing today because we haven't reached our year-end fundraising goal.
We need just 1,000 more donors to contribute or we won't reach our critical $100,000 matching gift goal to make our ambitious 2019 plans possible. I was checking our records, and we haven't seen a year-end donation from you yet.
Will you chip in a few dollars today to help us scale up our fight against the fossil fuel industry in 2019? Every bit will help, and your tax-deductible gift today will be doubled up to $100,000 thanks to a match provided by a generous donor.
Our entire approach is focused on people power. Whether it's cultivating local leaders to organize their communities to switch to 100% renewable energy, or taking to the streets to stop construction of a new pipeline – everything we do is about building up the power of the people.
This carries over to how we raise money, too. We rely on individual contributions to fund our grassroots campaigns, from the US to Japan. When we have your support, we can make the best, most strategic decisions for how we fight for the future of our climate and communities, not cater to the whims of special interests bent on keeping the status quo.
We have big plans for 2019, and with just 10 years left to dramatically change the course of our climate, we must raise the money we need today to act on our bold vision of stopping the fossil fuel industry in its tracks.
350.org's power has always been its grassroots support – people like you, who support us with their time, energy, and money. Thank you so much in advance for your support and generosity as we close out 2018 and head into our most ambitious year yet in the fight for climate justice.
Thank you,
Julie Hudson, Development Director
