Dear Critterville Citizens,
Give back to the ocean today!
Become a member today and receive our 2010 Wildlife Calendar—and know that you are helping protect our wondrous ocean.
Donate Now: secure2.convio.net/toc/site/Donation2?idb=0&df_id=2301&2301.donation=form1&JServSessionIdr011=t54kjyrl33.app46b
What has the ocean given you?
Is it beautiful memories of family vacations to the beach—splashing in the waves and building sand castles?
Is it a livelihood—a profession that has provided for you and your loved ones over the years?
Or maybe it’s a daily run along a sunlit shore, the firm sand beneath your feet, solid and strong, yet sometimes littered—sadly—with marine debris from previous visitors.
Whatever it is that the ocean gives to you, Karen, I’m writing today to ask you to give back: your gift today to Ocean Conservancy will enable us to continue our work around the country to protect this wondrous treasure, while keeping it healthy from harmful human impacts.
Plus, with your donation you’ll become one of Ocean Conservancy’s newest members and receive our inspiring 2010 Ocean Wildlife Calendar, full of breathtaking images of the creatures that call the ocean home—and whose lives your membership protects.
Some of us are fortunate to live by the ocean, while others are grateful just to witness its beauty from afar through photos and videos. But every single living thing, every day of the year, depends on the ocean for survival. We depend on the ocean for the food we eat to the water we drink to the air we breathe. And every creature that calls the ocean home—from the tiniest seahorse to the largest whale—needs this invaluable resource protected and healthy.
Please donate a gift of $25, $35, or any amount you can spare and help us give back to the ocean today and keep it teeming with abundance.
Whether it’s through our work protecting the Arctic from climate change, reducing the impact of harmful fishing practices, preserving critical marine reserves, and eliminating and removing trash and debris from our beaches and waterways, Ocean Conservancy will continue to be the ocean's greatest ally—and we hope you will be, too.
There really is no better time than now to become an Ocean Conservancy member and show your appreciation for the ocean. Will you join us?
Thank you so much for supporting us—and the ocean—with your gift today.
