We are so close, John:

Earlier this week, I shared that we were falling short of our budget to
send 350.org climate organizers to communities most impacted by the
climate crisis in the U.S.

Since then, our climate movement of grassroots supporters has really
stepped up to help — as of right now, we are only $3,800 away from fully
funding this trip.

If everyone who reads this email chipped in tonight, we would close our
fundraising gap in a matter of minutes. So if you are one of the people
who can afford to chip in, I really hope you'll consider doing so,
especially tonight:

fundraising gap and send climate organizers to support frontline
communities across the United States?

[ [link removed] ]CHIP IN

Your contribution this evening will mean climate organizers at 350.org are
able to meet frontline communities face-to-face, hear about the
experience, and support their local efforts. That is the kind of climate
organizing that will truly dismantle the fossil fuel industry.

Thank you for reading this important fundraising update.

More soon,

- Jeff

P.S. For more details, you can read my original message below.

I won't lie to you, John:

Even though scientists predicted the massive flooding and extreme heat we
are experiencing, it's still a terrifying wake-up call to see it right in
front of us.

And what's even scarier is that if we don't take drastic action now, our
children and grandchildren will suffer a reality on this planet that is
far, far worse.

The single most important thing we can do right now is turn our fear and
anger into action. We KNOW that fossil fuel companies are responsible for
destroying our planet, and if we are going to turn things around, we have
to act now.

As I write this email, climate organizers at 350.org are preparing to get
on the road to mobilize communities around the country in the fight
against fossil fuels. We're hoping to add some critical stops on the trip
to meet with frontline communities who need our support, but right now,
our budget is falling short and we are at risk of having to scale back our
plans.

That is why I am asking you to make a
$3.50
contribution today so we can grow our climate movement across the country
and defeat the fossil fuel industry:

There is nothing more powerful than when climate organizers are able to
meet with communities face-to-face, hear about their experience, and
support their local efforts. Quite frankly, it is this on-the-ground
organizing that gives me hope that we can turn things around for the
climate crisis.

Here are a few of the places we're hoping to add to the trip. Your
$3.50
contribution will help climate organizers get to each place:

* Appalachia, to mobilize supporters in the fight against Mountain
Valley Pipeline,
* Ohio, to organize communities for actions and events around corrupt
utility companies like American Electric Power,
* Maine, to support local groups organizing for the Pine Tree Ballot
initiative, a first-of-its-kind climate solution that provides a
sustainable alternative to oil and gas utilities,
* New Jersey, to work with climate partners in the fight against the
East African Crude Oil Pipeline,
* And many more!

[ [link removed] ]John,
your
first
$3.50
contribution will help climate organizers make it to every single one of
these communities so we can grow and build our climate movement around the
country. If you can, please donate what you can afford today.

I know that this isn't the first time that I've asked you to donate, and
it won't be the last. But please know that every time I send an email like
this it is because we genuinely do rely on the support of people like you.

The truth is that none of this work is possible without you. So thank you
for supporting this important trip today. All of us here at 350.org are
thanking you, John.

In solidarity,

Jeff Ordower
North America Director
