Dear Friend,
Today is Giving Tuesday – a special time where we come together every year to celebrate Glacier National Park and provide immediate support for projects most in need throughout the park.
There is no better place to explore the night sky than right here in Waterton Glacier – the world’s first transboundary International Dark Sky Park.
So this year, we have selected a project to fund that needs your continued support – Half The Park Happens After Dark.
Today, on Giving Tuesday, your donation to this project will help the park maintain its long-term commitment to preserving dark skies by funding onsite astronomy volunteers and interns, astronomy education programs, astronomy events, and the operation of Glacier’s new Dusty Star Observatory – home to the largest scientific telescope in the National Park Service.
In addition, programming strives to bridge the gap between a western scientific perspective and cultural interpretations of the night sky.
Your support on Giving Tuesday will help fund these important dark sky initiatives in the park next year that simply would not happen without your support.
What's more, thanks to a generous donor, your gift this Giving Tuesday will be matched – dollar for dollar – up to $25,000! That means your special gift today will have twice the impact.
Join us now for this special 2x gift match opportunity – only for this Giving Tuesday! When you make your gift today, you'll make an incredible impact for the park you love and continue to provide critical support as we head into next year.
Thank you for all you do to support Glacier National Park, and keep looking to the stars.
With deepest thanks,
