Dear Friend,

The clock is quickly ticking toward the final hours of 2025–and the conclusion of our critical year-end fundraising campaign. Have you made your urgently needed gift yet?

As a global nonprofit, the National Geographic Society relies on the support of passionate people like you to fund the National Geographic Explorers and mission programs pushing the boundaries of science and exploration to safeguard our planet.

Help illuminate and protect the wonder of our world with a tax-deductible donation today. Plus, with your donation of $35 or more, you will receive a FREE National Geographic Society travel blanket made from recycled materials as our way of saying thanks!

We are proud that 100% of your donation will be used to meet the challenges of our changing world, including supporting Explorer-led efforts like:

• Explorer Diego Pol, who unearthed a new titanosaur in the Anacleto Formation of northern Patagonia while seeking answers to questions about extinction patterns in South America relative to the other regions of the world

• Young Explorers using their voices and talents to implement innovative solutions in local communities

• Explorer in Residence Enric Sala and The Pristine Seas team documenting the largest coral in the world and working to establish new marine protected areas

Your generous gift today will provide essential support for our Explorers in the year ahead. Thanks to you and your fellow supporters, they can continue working tirelessly to advance our collective knowledge, safeguard fragile ecosystems and cultural heritage, and share the stories that change how we understand our world.

Thank you once again for being a part of the National Geographic Society community. We deeply appreciate your support.

Sincerely,

David Glass
Vice President of Membership
National Geographic Society
