One day of action isn’t enough – not with the lives of the animals we love on the line. That’s why we’re sharing this Giving Tuesday update:
That’s why our Board of Directors and President’s Circle - who were so inspired by the outpouring of support on Giving Tuesday - have extended their quadruple match offer to protect even more wildlife. And they’ve upped this matching fund to $100,000!
I know you care about wildlife, just like the thousands of donors who stepped up yesterday. And it’s not too late to join their ranks by pitching in right now!
Even just the last few months have been brutal for gray wolves, polar bears, orcas and so many more imperiled animals:
The Trump administration officially delisted gray wolves in the lower 48 states from the Endangered Species Act, jeopardizing the dream of wolf recovery across the nation.
The Interior Department recently put out a lame duck call to oil companies to buy up land to drill on the coastal plain of the Arctic Refuge, in critical denning habitat for endangered polar bears.
We’ve been fighting devastating changes to the National Environmental Policy Act, the Endangered Species Act and other foundational wildlife laws that have protected our wild world for generations.
We can undo the damage. A better future for wildlife is possible – but only if we step up and make it a reality!
When you support Defenders of Wildlife, your gift goes further to fight back for threatened and endangered species wherever they need us – from communities across the country all the way up to lawmakers at the highest levels.
Friend of Defenders, it’s not too late to be a part of the movement to save the animals we love. Giving Tuesday is now Giving Week – protect wildlife with your gift of any amount today, while your contribution makes 4 times the difference!
