YEAR-END GOAL UPDATE: We're closing in on the end of the year. But I'm worried we're not going to make our goal. There's still time, but the fact is, we need your help. Make your year-end gift now and unlock a dollar-for-dollar MATCH.

Supporter,

It's almost the end of 2019. I hope that, whatever you're doing, you're able to find some time to rest.

I can't relax just yet — because I'm looking at our year-end budget, and I'm worried we won't make it. I direct our Lands, Water, and Wildlife campaign, and I'm worried for what this might mean for our public lands and vulnerable wildlife. You may not know this, but during this last week the Sierra Club makes over half of our budget for the entire year.

I hope you know how valued you are in our community, and I can't thank you enough for being here. But a year-end gift is one of the most important things you can do for us right now. Because the fact is, the Sierra Club needs your help.

Our budget isn't just an arbitrary number — it's carefully calculated to give us the maximum power to protect our environment. And the only way we're able to meet it is with the support of people like you. In fact, let me show you just a few highlights of what we accomplished just this year, with the support of our 3.5 million champions — like you:

The only way we could do any of that work was with the support of donors like you. With 2020 on the horizon, it's clear we're still in the fight of our lives. But we're going to be there, and I hope you'll be with us.

Please consider a gift today. A group of generous donors is waiting to match your donation — but we only have 56 hours to take them up on their offer to DOUBLE the impact of your gift.

With deep appreciation,

Dan Ritzman
Director of Lands, Water, Wildlife
Sierra Club

P.S. -- If you've already made your gift, THANK YOU. We're busy processing donations, and we really appreciate your support.
