$7,000 more to go!
Thanks to YOU, the Ozark Chapter—with its 12,000 members—is considered the most effective environmental organization in Missouri. We work together to protect the environment by empowering citizens and communities to be bold in claiming their shared natural heritage.
| We are counting on you! The 2005 Ozark Chapter Annual Appeal - INVESTING IN MISSOURI'S FUTIRE - has received more than $18,000 in member donations toward its goal of $25,000. However, we have only received about half the number of donations we are counting on (238/530). |
One hundred percent of your gift to the Ozark Chapter stays in Missouri. Your contribution helps Missouri’s staff and volunteer leaders engage more volunteers in direct advocacy and public education, develop strategic coalitions, implement campaigns to hold elected officials accountable, and pay for litigation when agencies or corporations fail to implement or enforce environmental safeguards and regulations.
Your support makes a difference!
“Thank you,” to those of you who have already sent in your donation.
