Good Morning Climate Activists,

For the last 3 days 350 Chicago has been hosting a Peer to Peer fundraiser to commemorate Zero Emission Day on Tuesday, September 21st! The annual day challenges citizens of the world to live a day with little or no emissions of fossil fuels.  

The fundraiser concludes on September 21st and we hope to raise $3000 in all.

As you may already know, 350 Chicago is conducting the fundraiser on GiveLively. The Peer to Peer platform leverages social media to raise money by asking your friends and followers to donate.

And... it’s not too late to get started with your own fundraising efforts with 350 Chicago. To begin, simply click on the link below:

Setting up the page only takes a couple of minutes. Create a profile, add a personalized message, a donation goal, upload your favorite picture of yourself doing something environmental and share it to your social media page(s). It’s just that easy!

Here is a tool kit the Fundraising Team created for sample posts you can use on your own social media pages. Or, create your own wording to personalize your posts.
