Dear John,

Join Our Children’s Trust today – Earth Day – in championing the 169 youth plaintiffs in constitutional climate cases across the globe.

Your gift will help unlock $40,000 to power our efforts to lift their voices in the courts and secure their right to a better future for us all. ([link removed])

Yesterday 9 youth leaders stood in front of the White House sharing their stories, determination, and the power of collective action. They are a driving force for climate justice – for themselves, the 2 billion children around the world, and for generations to come. Our youth leaders and the hundreds of supporters gathered called for the evidence to be heard in open court. They were joined by over 30 organizations, including Indigenous water protectors from Mexico emphasizing the importance of intergenerational efforts. In fact, hundreds of thousands of people have called on the Biden Administration to let the youth be heard in a global petition.

And we are winning! On Friday, U.S. District Court Judge Aiken filed an answer to the DOJ’s extraordinary attempts to silence the 21 youth plaintiffs in their constitutional climate case, Juliana v. United States. Judge Aiken told the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit that the government’s arguments are not valid and that their case should go to trial.

Our youth are at the forefront of our cases, strengthened by innovative legal strategies, expert testimonies, and a supportive community.
As our youth plaintiffs rally to support one another in their fight for justice, let’s stand with them and demonstrate our commitment to protecting our planet for future generations. Your contribution, regardless of size, can make a world of difference.
