Dear NRDC Supporter,

I'm really glad I get to be the one to share this news.

Starting now, all donations to NRDC's Holiday Drive for Wildlife will be matched FIVE TIMES, up to $80,000! But you have to hurry because this flash match expires at MIDNIGHT! Can you chip in just $5?

What's happening to wildlife, the way species are disappearing — it's a sign of how bad things have gotten.

The truth is, we're screwing over our planet.

I know that's not a typical thing you read in an email like this. But it's true. And it doesn't matter what side you're on. We all depend on this same web of life that's unraveling.

But NRDC gives me hope.

Will you join me and support NRDC's battle to defend vulnerable wildlife and protect our environment on all fronts? Your gift will be MATCHED 5x, up to $80,000! A $5 gift is all it takes to make a difference.

You'll make 5x the impact to:

• Protect polar bears as the sea ice they depend on disappears because of climate change. Donate now to help stop new drilling in the Arctic and off our coasts.
• Save bees and butterflies from being wiped out by toxic pesticides. Your donation helps fight for strong limits on bee-killing pesticides.
• Defend whales that are being killed by speeding ships and fishing gear entanglements. Donate to help NRDC advocate for policies that protect whales.
• Safeguard habitats like ancient forests that are teeming with wildlife. Every dollar you give by midnight will be MULTIPLIED 5x to protect ecosystems that sustain all life on Earth.

I've seen the team at NRDC do amazing things. From winning countless lawsuits against polluters to pressuring our government to preserve vital habitats, they win big on behalf of communities and our environment.

But they can't do this important work without the support of people like you and me.

So, please make a gift to defend our most vulnerable species while your donation will be MATCHED 5x, up to $80,000! A $5 gift is all it takes to make a difference.

Thanks for being a part of this fight.

Sincerely,

P.S. The team at NRDC tells me that this kind of match offer rarely comes around, so I hope you'll decide to respond right now, when your gift makes the biggest difference.
