Friend — TODAY is #GivingTuesdayNow, and we have just under 18 hours until a MAJOR deadline.
Here's the deal: A donor put up a $100,000 challenge grant in honor of #GivingTuesdayNow — only if 1,500 LCV members donate before midnight tonight.
That's $100,000 that we desperately need to fight the Trump administration on multiple fronts — not only have they failed miserably to respond to the coronavirus crisis, but they're actually using it as an opportunity to wage war on the environment and line their own pockets while everyone's back is turned.
This grant could be a real game changer, and we CANNOT afford to miss out on this opportunity, but we're in danger of falling short.
The good news: Small donations count just as much as big ones towards meeting this goal. If everyone who reads this message donated just $5, we'd blow through this goal with hours to spare.
Please, friend — don't sit this one out. Take a look at where things stand and then make a donation today!
FOR IMMEDIATE REVIEW:
Please confirm your status
In the midst of this pandemic, Trump's efforts to undermine the environment will cost lives.
We're fighting back with everything we've got. Here's what we're up against:
- Under cover of the pandemic, the Trump administration has undermined EPA safety measures cutting mercury and other toxic air pollutants. These are pollutants that have already been linked to higher COVID-19 death rates all over the country. Amid a public health crisis, where tens of thousands of people are dying from a virus that directly targets the respiratory system, the Trump administration is actively making it harder for people to breathe. This is quite literally a matter of life and death. Make a gift to LCV today to help us force the EPA to do its job »
- These attacks on the environment disproportionately affect low-income folks and communities of color, who are already more likely to live in areas with high levels of air pollution, and therefore have a higher risk of dying from this virus. This virus is already targeting our most vulnerable communities, and Trump is deliberately making the problem worse. Please, make an emergency gift today. Even $5 makes a huge difference »
- When we stopped Trump's attempt to score bailout money for the oil and gas companies in the first coronavirus relief bill, he turned around and added executives from the top oil producers to his official task force to re-open the country. Now they're trying to change the Main Street program meant to help local mom and pop businesses so huge indebted oil companies can get cheap loans instead. They are still pushing hard — by any means necessary — to get a bailout. You can stop them. Make a donation to LCV today »
- On top of all of this, we must not forget that the most important election of our lives is coming up in a few short months, and it has never been more crucial that we elect environmental leaders who believe in science, at all levels. The environmental movement MUST be ready. The only way that's going to happen is if we continue to organize and mobilize, on ALL fronts. We need YOUR help, and we need it now!
LCV's work has never been more critical than it is now, but we're in danger of exhausting our resource. This grant could potentially change everything.
Friend, the ONLY way we can reach this goal is with your help. Remember, gifts of any amount count, even if they're just $5.
Please, donate now, before the #GivingTuesdayNow deadline.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. For everything you do.
Sincerely,
LCV Rapid Response Team |
