Friend — earlier this month, a donor put up a challenge match to triple every donation to LCV Victory Fund through the end of this month — up to a goal amount of $250,000.
The deadline is tomorrow, and we are still short of our goal.
We can't come up short here — we just can't. New polling has shown that Senate seats in key battleground states — which, just a few months ago, seemed out of reach — are now in play: Arizona, Montana, North Carolina, Colorado, Iowa, and Maine are all up for grabs.
These are races where the environmental movement will decide the winner. And coming up short could mean giving up on a race we otherwise could have won.
Since we first reached out, folks from all over the country have been pitching in — some throwing in $5, many for the first time ever. Many have started monthly gifts, which will be triple-matched through the rest of the year.
Friend, I wouldn't ask if it wasn't extremely important: We can not afford to fall short of this goal. Will you review your campaign status below and make a triple-matched gift to LCV Victory Fund today? Even $5 helps »
FOR IMMEDIATE REVIEW: TRIPLE MATCH STATUS
Please confirm
We need to go big right now. Since we launched our electoral program, LCV Victory Fund has been a 24/7 operation. We are committed to electing pro-environment leaders who will dismantle Trump's racist, destructive policies on all fronts — because we simply can't afford not to.
Trump's failure to deal with the coronavirus crisis has cost thousands of lives. His racism has caused unimaginable suffering. His corruption has cost taxpayers millions of dollars. His science denial has caused a tremendous amount of damage to the climate, disproportionately impacting communities of color. And the Senate has not only failed to stop him — they've helped.
We cannot allow this to continue. We MUST defeat Trump and take back the Senate in November. But if we fail to meet our fundraising goal, we could be forced to scale back our efforts in key races. The stakes are so high, and the polls are so close, that even a single loss could cost us the entire election.
We can't let that happen. Please, friend — don't force us to make that kind of call. Make a triple-matched gift TODAY to help us reach our goal. Even $5 makes a difference »
We are mobilizing like never before: We're investing in a series of high-impact, high-frequency digital ads. We're running a targeted direct mail program in critical battleground states. We're organizing volunteers, who will make phone calls and send text messages to thousands and thousands of voters across the country.
These tactics work. We can do this. We just need your help.
Make a triple-matched gift to help us reach our goal and ramp up our electoral efforts TODAY »
Thank you friend — for everything.
Let's do this.
