John -

This is not the kind of message I want to write. But as a strong supporter
of our climate movement, you deserve to know the truth:

A major gift of $50,000 that we were relying on just fell through. These
things are not uncommon during difficult political and financial times,
but unfortunately, it leaves us with only a few days to close the gap
before our fiscal year ends on September 30.

Our organization
relies on supporters just like you,
John, who believe that a bright future for our
children and grandchildren is possible.

But with this sudden financial shortfall, we are counting on you now more
than ever before to help 350 continue our work to defeat the fossil fuel
industry and build a renewable future.

to help us close this financial gap before the end of our fiscal year on
September 30?

This financial shortfall comes just days after our hugely successful — but
expensive — global days of action. All over the world, 350 and partners
organized "Draw the Line" events and demonstrations that brought hundreds
of thousands of people to the streets to demand real change.

And make no mistake — the fossil fuel industry wants nothing more than for
350 to scale back our work. They’re counting on these financial pressures
to silence us.

But now is not the time for us to back down. Now is the time to build on
the momentum from Draw the Line. We have to fight — hard — for a world
free from injustice, climate destruction, and violence.

Your support at this moment will send an unmistakable message: we are not
giving up.

contribution, now is that moment,
John.

With gratitude,
