bike seeds: [Triple Match Alert] Do you feel déjà vu, Momoko?

3X GIVING DAY MATCH ALERT:
Triple Your Impact and Power the Fight for America's Public Lands >>

Momoko, the future of our shared public lands has reached an unprecedented crisis point—and we need you to join us on the front lines of the fight to defend them before it's too late.

The administration has virtually eliminated Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante national monuments in Utah, stripping essential protections from nearly 3 million acres of land. In New Mexico, it's rushing to roll back a ban on oil and gas drilling surrounding Chaco Canyon, an irreplaceable ancestral landscape. And it's moving to fully repeal the Roadless Area Conservation Rule—putting 45 million acres of national forest lands at risk of logging and development.

These reckless attacks add up to an all-out assault on the lands and waters that sustain us. But we're not backing down. We're ramping up our defenses—and we need your help.

The Wilderness Society's Giving Day is just around the corner, but this moment is so urgent that a longtime donor has agreed to start triple-matching every dollar you contribute TODAY, up to $375,000. Make your tax-deductible gift before the September 3 deadline and be one of the 500 donors we need to join our community-wide effort in defense of our shared public lands!

If these attacks on Bears Ears, Chaco Canyon, our national forests and other public lands feel like déjà vu to you, you're not alone. We've faced headwinds just like these throughout our history—and every time, we've rallied a powerful response driven by the passion and determination of Wilderness Society supporters like you.

But the rapid pace and sheer scale of this administration's reckless attacks on public lands demand that we step up and take action like never before. Your generous, triple-matched gift this Giving Day will do three times as much to help supercharge our strategic legal work, hard-hitting grassroots advocacy, groundbreaking scientific research and on-the-ground conservation efforts around the country. Please don't wait: you can make an immediate impact if you pitch in today.

3X Match My Gift

This fight will not be an easy one, Momoko. But our beloved public lands are so much more than wide open spaces on a map: they provide us with clean air and water...they preserve irreplaceable cultural resources...they sustain some of our most iconic wildlife...and they offer us the fundamental freedom to explore. They are worth fighting for.

Make a tax-deductible donation right now and you'll do 3X as much to protect the national monuments, wildlife refuges, national parks and other public lands you love, and ensure they endure for generations to come.

Thank you for being a crucial part of the movement to protect our shared public lands, and for standing with us during the moments that matter most.

P.S. September 3 is The Wilderness Society's Giving Day—and the 62nd anniversary of the passage of the Wilderness Act. The Wilderness Act was a landmark win for conservation, led by Wilderness Society leader Howard Zahniser, and there is no better way to celebrate its impact than by continuing the fight to defend America's spectacular public lands. Make your gift in honor of our upcoming Giving Day right now and it will go 3X as far to carry forward this important legacy of conservation.
