John,

On February 26, 1919, the bill establishing Grand Canyon National
Park was signed by President Woodrow Wilson. Today marks the 102nd
birthday of this majestic National Park. I know you value this
national treasure like I do, especially if you've enjoyed the
landscape from an overlook, strolled along the rim, or hiked one of
the park's corridor trails.

But the fate of the Grand Canyon and its surroundings are at
stake. In 2012, after extensive public support, a 20-year ban on
uranium mining was placed near the Grand Canyon to protect critical
waterways, sacred sites, and wildlife habitat. But the ban is only
temporary, which is why The Trust for Public Land is doing everything
we can to get Congress to permanently ban toxic uranium mining near
the Grand Canyon before it's too late.

John, we're so glad to count you as a public land supporter, and we
rely on you more than you might know. Today, on the 102nd
anniversary of the creation of Grand Canyon National Park, we're
asking for 102 of our most committed advocates to strengthen their
commitment to create parks and protect public lands for people with a
modest monthly gift of $15, or $21, or whatever you can afford. Can I
count on you to join our Monthly Giving Society today?

2021 is underway, there's a new Congress in Washington, D.C.,
and we have to get to work on a long list of urgent needs, including:

* Helping our Federal Affairs team in D.C. pursue important
priorities, starting with permanent protection against uranium
mining near the Grand Canyon, and reversing two million acres of
protected land rollbacks from Bears Ears and Grand
Staircase-Escalante National Monuments.
* Ensuring that every American has a park or open space within a
10-minute walk of home, something that 100 million people in the
U.S., including 28 million children, do not have.
* Advancing the Climate-Smart Cities(TM) initiative, to make
communities more equitable, livable, and resilient to increased
wildfires, hurricanes, and other devastating effects of climate
change.

As The Trust for Public Land works to conserve one million acres
of land, protect 1,000 miles of rivers, and build 1,000 miles of
trails across America - goals we've set to achieve by 2025
- I know I can count on you to be a dependable source of
support each month.

Thank you for helping us reach our goal today.

Sincerely,

Kate Worth
Monthly Giving Society Liaison and Member

P.S. Thanks to our efficient process, we're now able to
protect even more land. Every $1 you give now saves $8 worth of land!
Thank you for taking this opportunity to increase your commitment to
public lands in 2021 by making a monthly gift today. If you're
not ready to make a monthly commitment today, you can make a one-time
gift here.
