Thank You for Your Support |
 

Hello John,

 

I don’t know if you saw yesterday’s email from the team, but I wanted to update you on our year-end fundraising push. 

 

We set a goal of raising $5,000 in the final days of 2022. So far, we’ve raised $2,725. It’s a huge boost, but we still have work to do to reach our ultimate goal.

 

As outlined below, 2022 was a big year for us. Thanks to our all-star staff and incredible donors, we grew in every aspect of the organization. 

 

Can I count on you to step up again and help us cross the finish line with a contribution before the ball drops at midnight? 

 

Thank you for all you do for o2 Utah!

 

Sincerely,

David Garbett | Executive Director

Hi John,

 

The end of the year is quickly approaching. As we look back at what we’ve accomplished with your help, we’re blown away — and we think you will be, too.

 

  • Successfully advocated and saw the passage of SB 188 — Energy Efficiency Amendments
  • 2022 Midterm Election Success for Air Quality Champions
    • 435 hours in the field
    • 3,100 doors knocked 
    • 3,473 calls made in the primary and general elections
    • 755 total hours of support for air quality champions
  • Introduction of first-of-its-kind Commit to Vote Program aiming to activate low-propensity, environmentally-focused voters in a key house district. 
  • We had 46 community events! We partnered with Patagonia to have our first ever live podcast. We got outside with Twin Peak Tuesdays, Bikes and Brews, and canvassing shifts for candidates. There were community phone banks, tabling events, and educational workshops. 
  • More than 200 volunteers came out to help us with our efforts to ensure a healthier future for Utah. 
  • And so much more!

 

None of this would have been possible without you. You voted, you volunteered, you reached out to your elected officials, and you donated what you could to help the cause. Thank you!

 

We’re trying to finish 2022 on a strong note to give us the best possible footing going into the new year by raising $5,000 before the ball drops at midnight on Saturday. 

 

Can we count on you to chip in and help us reach our goal?

2023 will be challenging, but we are excited for the opportunities. From the legislative session to municipal elections, there will be no time to waste when it comes to protecting our air quality. 

 

Your year-end gift today helps us hit the ground running in 2023.

 

Thank you,

 

Greg Yerkes and the o2 Utah Team
