Dear Friend of Wildlife, Today's your last chance to make a 2016 tax-deductible gift and I have exciting news: a generous donor has stepped forward with an incredible 2-to-1 match opportunity to save wildlife and wild places! Today only, any gift you make will be matched $2 for $1 up to a total of $250,000 – tripling your impact. There has never been a better time to give. Today you have the rare opportunity to have a profound impact for endangered wildlife thanks to this incredible 2-to-1 matching gift: For elephants suffering massive slaughter by poachers and traffickers, hanging on in the wild by the thinnest of threads. For tigers who number less than 3,500 in the wild. For Grauer's gorillas which were recently listed as Critically Endangered based on WCS research. For pangolins, sharks, turtles, parrots, and countless other species who rarely make news but are vanishing from this planet at shocking rates. We have solutions that work. With your support, we can create new national parks and equip and train rangers protecting wildlife in the most important places for their survival. We can identify, arrest, and prosecute criminals profiting off the slaughter of endangered wildlife. And we are building a movement of compassionate people like you, people who know elephants, tigers, and gorillas belong alive and thriving in the wild and who are persuading the whole world to come with us. Big conservation wins at major international policy conferences like CITES and IUCN show the tide could be turning for wildlife. Yet, we enter 2017 faced with uncertainty. In a time of political change, there are many questions that we do not yet have the answers to – please don't let your commitment to a future for wildlife be one of them. Before midnight, stand for wildlife and wild places. Make your 2016 tax-deductible gift before time runs out and it will TRIPLE in impact. The kind of opportunity you have in front of you right now, to put 3x the resources toward effective, science based strategies to save wildlife, doesn’t come around every day. Please don't let this moment pass you by. Thank you, Cristián Samper President and CEO Wildlife Conservation Society If you have any questions or would like to request more information about making a gift, please write to donate@wcs.org for the quickest response. |
