I've got good news and bad news, John. Let's get to the good news first.
Good news: THOUSANDS of people are donating to help hit our biggest-ever fundraising goal for the climate. We're trying to raise $950,000 by midnight so we can fully fund our climate campaigning plans for next year.
Now the bad news: Even though thousands of people are donating, those who are donating are chipping in a lot less than we expected. Unfortunately, that means we're coming up short of our fundraising goal, and we might not hit it tonight.
Right now, we're about $66,557 short of where we need to be.
Asking for your help: John, we're coming to you now to ask for your help. With time running out before midnight, we truly can't afford to fall short of our goal.
How much money we raise for our climate campaigning between now and midnight could be the difference between doing EVERYTHING we can to end the era of fossil fuels, or falling short of our goal.
I know that if enough of us stand together in these final hours before our deadline, we'll not just hit our goal — but we'll send an unmistakable message to the fossil fuel industry that we WILL save our planet from their greed.
Thank you for all you do.
