[Image alt text: As You Sow® banner with logo, image of mountains and a lake, and text saying: The nation’s leading non-profit shareholder advocate, with a 30-year track record of changing corporations for good]Dear John,

The Roddenberry Foundation is committed to advancing my father’s, Gene Roddenberry, my family’s, and Star Trek’s faith in humanity by finding and supporting remarkable people and organizations – those who are disrupting existing dynamics, challenging old patterns of thought, and discovering new ways to move towards a better future.

We have found that, and more, in As You Sow, its theory of change, and the direction of its leadership and staff.

Our vision at the foundation is a future where diversity and tolerance are encouraged and in which inclusivity and equality are the norm. It’s about moving into the future with big, bold ideas and empathy that can change the world.

As You Sow is on a mission to do exactly that.

The problems we face today are only getting worse – climate change, ocean plastic pollution, toxins in our food system, racial injustice, rampant income inequality. Changing deeply entrenched patterns and thoughts requires building momentum, and this work is only as strong as the people behind it. We believe in the crew and mission of As You Sow.

Will you stand with us? < [link removed] >

This is an enormously important moment in so many ways, and especially in supporting the climate justice movement. The well-being of our communities – and in fact the whole world – is at stake. We believe that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few and you’re a huge part of this critical work, inspiring every sector of the economy to find new, just, and sustainable ways to thrive, not just for future generations, but for right now.

I am honored to be able to contribute to As You Sow’s work and progress. Will you join me?

Please donate now < [link removed] > to support As You Sow’s innovative thinking and the incredible people who are changing the world for the better. Your commitment today helps unleash the extraordinary achievements of tomorrow.

Live long, and prosper,

Rod
