Friend,

These three numbers show exactly what’s at stake this Giving Tuesday:

$23,640,000: The amount food and beverage companies spent lobbying Congress in 2025 — protecting profits instead of your health.

99%: The share of new food chemicals that entered the market through the broken GRAS loophole since 2000. Companies are essentially greenlighting their own products.

120+: The number of state food safety bills that could be blocked if Americans for Ingredient Transparency – an industry front group – gets its way. These laws protect families. Industry wants them stopped.

These numbers show what we’re up against – and why your support today is critical.

Will you make a Giving Tuesday gift to help EWG fight back and protect families from harmful chemicals in our food? If you donate $110 or more, we will send you our Holiday Gift Box as a thank-you (a $25 discount).

Your donation will be MATCHED before midnight, doubling your impact when it matters most.

These numbers make one thing clear: Our food system is being shaped by corporate power – not public health.

But corporations can’t control people power. When EWG’s 30 million supporters stand together, we can stop them – no matter how much money they throw at Congress.

Here’s what your gift powers:

Let’s make sure industry’s millions don’t silence the voices fighting for your family’s health.
