Friend,

We're so close to reaching our goal of 500 donations to defend our nation's most vulnerable forests – but if more supporters like you don't contribute before tonight's deadline, we'll fall short.

Will you help us get there? Your gift will strengthen the Sierra Club's critical work to secure greater protections for mature and old-growth trees – and if you pitch in before midnight, we'll send you a FREE sustainable tote bag to say thanks!

When you join the Sierra Club with a gift of $15 or more, you'll also enjoy exclusive member benefits like a subscription to Sierra magazine, automatic membership in your local Sierra Club chapter, discounts on apparel, books, and other merchandise, and more! Join now to claim your benefits and help save threatened forests.

Our mature and old-growth forests are some of the most powerful tools we have in the fight against climate change. The Sierra Club is working to defend them on every front: from fighting in court to protect California's towering Sequoia groves from commercial logging, to pushing Congress to pass stronger safeguards that would protect public lands like our national forests from the grave threat of industrial extraction.

But we're running out of time to finalize long-lasting, meaningful protections for mature and old-growth forests – and with every passing day, more majestic forests remain vulnerable to the grave threats of commercial logging, wildfires, and overdevelopment. We urgently need your support to ramp up our work in the critical weeks and months ahead.

Don't wait! Your gift to protect forests will help us reach our 500 donor goal, and we'll send you a free tote bag as a token of our gratitude.

Thank you, Friend – for everything you do to protect our trees, our wild places, and all of the incredible nature around us.

Your friends at the Sierra Club
