The Arctic Refuge: Keep it Wild and Pure
The Wilderness Society - Jennifer Donahue and William Meadows
I wanted to reach out to you and let you know the message below is NOT just another year-end ask for money. Like you, I’ve been bombarded by them too.
But the Arctic Refuge really is in danger. We aren’t crying wolf. If we don’t do everything we can now to stop it, they will drill there.
We can’t stop this without you. So I’m asking you to please give now.
Big Oil has endless dollar to lobby Congress. But The Wilderness Society has something they don’t have...you! And the more of you who stand with us, the stronger we are in fighting for what matters.
As long as you continue to care, to act and, yes, to give, we will work to save the Arctic Refuge. And together, we will keep the Arctic Refuge wild and pure. So please take a moment to donate now.
Please help us protect this American jewel. America needs it. The Polar Bears and Grizzlies need it. The world needs the Arctic Refuge. That’s not exaggerating to get your donation. That’s the truth.
Thank you for caring. And thank you in advance for doing something now to stop drilling in the Arctic.
Jennifer Donahue,

When you set aside all the science and geographic facts around the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge...the truth is simple. The Refuge is pure. We think it should stay that way.
We pledge to you that The Wilderness Society will continue to work toward Wilderness designation for the coastal plain of the Arctic Refuge. We believe this will result in the highest levels of protection for the Refuge.
You can help us in this effort with a year-end donation to The Wilderness Society today.

Help Keep the Refuge Pure. |
The Arctic Refuge is a biologically and culturally important wildland for many species of wildlife and the Gwich’in native people. The Coastal Plain is also the most important land denning and nursery habitat in the United States for the threatened polar bear, and the US Fish and Wildlife Service recently designated most of the refuge’s Coastal Plain as polar bear critical habitat.
Thank you.
