John,
I just want to remind you that our anonymous patron's
matching-gift offer is still in effect.
When you join The Trust for Public Land today, your membership
gift will be matched dollar for dollar.

We're grateful for all you do as a supporter of The Trust
for Public Land, but I suspect this is an opportunity you
wouldn't want to miss as a dedicated public land advocate. Your
membership gift will be doubled, so it will do twice as much to:

Help our Federal Affairs team in D.C. defend public lands. From
advocating for full funding of the Land and Water Conservation Fund to
protecting the Antiquities Act to making sure that no more national
monuments are chopped to pieces the way Bears Ears and Grand
Staircase-Escalante were, our team is working tirelessly to protect
the land that belongs to all of us.
Ensure that every American has a park or open space within a
10-minute walk of home. Study after study has shown that parks are
critical to the physical, social, environmental, and economic health
of a community. So far, 78 mayors have endorsed the 10-minute walk
campaign for their cities. Even so, 100 million Americans don't
yet have a close-to-home park. We're going to change that.
Convert bleak, bare schoolyards into vibrant centers of the
community. Tens of thousands of urban acres are owned by public
school districts, but all too often, schoolyards look more like
parking lots than playgrounds. We're working with students,
administrators, local residents, and other stakeholders to turn these
underused spaces into green areas that serve as living hubs of
neighborhood activities.
Protect cities from climate change. The unprecedented wildfires
in California, as well as deadly heat waves, prolonged drought, and
destructive hurricanes all across the country, highlight the urgent
need to protect people from the impacts of climate change. Our
Climate-Smart Cities(TM) initiative is helping cities make their
communities more equitable, livable, and resilient to the effects of
climate change.
This exceptionally generous offer will end on December 31, so
please act now. Make your tax-deductible membership gift to The Trust
for Public Land today and let our anonymous patron double it.

Kim Elliot
