Can you guess what’s the secret ingredient that brought the climate strikes to life? Help us build more power for the coming year. Everything you give today will be matched by a big donor, and doubled!

Hi John, 

How does it feel knowing you’ve helped bring 7,6 million people on the streets for climate justice this year? I’ll let you in on a secret – the world’s biggest climate strikes couldn’t have happened without you. 

Because global movements and mass mobilisations don’t just happen: they take committed people, massive infrastructure, and months of strategy and planning. So when youth strikers around the world came up with a bold call for a global strike, 350 helped build the logistical backbone to make it explode worldwide. 

We couldn’t have done it without the support, commitment and actions of each and every one of us in the global 350 community.

2019 was a huge year for climate action, and the climate strikes captured the world’s attention, but there’s still so much more to do. Will you help strengthen this worldwide movement today, so we can be ready for bold action next year? 

John, can you chip in now to support the organizers, tech and training to power our global movement? Every donation made today will be matched - doubled! - by a generous donor, so your contribution can go twice as far! 

Last spring, inspired by the bold leadership of the youth strikers, we decided to throw everything we had into helping make the Global Climate Strike the huge success it turned out to be. 

It’s hard to describe an action of this scale in just a few words, but I want to try and give you a sense of what was going on behind the scenes. Here’s just a glimpse: 

For me, the most inspiring thing about the strikes was seeing a new generation of activists take the lead - especially the powerful young women and indigenous youth leaders standing up against systemic injustices and oppressions, and reclaiming their voice. They are the power of the movement, so we helped amplify in any way we could – boosting their platform in the media, connecting youth strikers across the world, offering trainings and workshops, coordinating their meetings, supporting them in caring for their wellbeing in the midst of frantic organising.

John, we don’t talk about the support infrastructure often, because it’s so much more exciting to focus on the bold, vibrant actions taking place on the streets. But strikes across 185 countries took an immense amount of tech set up, logistics, volunteers, trainings, and tools – all that takes money and time.

The Global Climate Strikes were only the beginning. Now, we need to be ready to power the big climate moments of 2020: for this, we need you. Can you chip in a few euros today to fund the essential training, organizers, and tech we need to grow even bigger and bolder next year? 

We’ve come so far, we can’t afford to lose momentum now. It’s up to all of us to harness the global attention we’ve sparked – and make 2020 the year of climate justice. Chip in and power our movement: only today anything you give will be doubled, thanks to a contribution by a generous donor!

Onwards, together,

Julia for the entire 350.org team
