[REPOST from Sierra Club]

Help keep oil drilling out of North America’s Serengeti – give an Arctic National Refuge sponsorship gift today or sponsor another of our magnificent wild places!

Dear Brandi,

For over 30 years, the Sierra Club has worked to protect the pristine wilderness of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, blocking numerous attempts to open the Refuge to oil and gas development – but we need your help to keep it safe!

When you sponsor the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, you are giving a unique and special gift to someone you love or yourself – and helping preserve America’s wild legacy at the same time.

The Arctic’s rolling tundra and sparkling coastal waters are home to a stunning array of wildlife including caribou, polar bears, grizzly, muskoxen and wolverines, and nearly 200 species of birds.

These creatures have roamed the far north for centuries, but now this critical habitat is threatened. Oil and gas development is being heavily promoted for the coastal plain of the Refuge. Combined with the impacts of global warming, this would wreak havoc on this vast landscape, and the magnificent wildlife that depend on it. 

For as little as $25 including shipping, sponsor the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge or one of our other iconic wild places – Yosemite, Giant Sequoia National Monument, Yellowstone or Acadia National Park - and know that you are supporting the Sierra Club’s critical conservation work to protect wildlands and wildlife, keep our air and water clean, and solve global warming.

Your Arctic Sponsorship includes:

• Plush polar bear puppet and/or rucksack
• Personalized Certificate of Sponsorship
• Beautiful 5×7” full color photograph of the Arctic Refuge
• A colorful Fact Sheet with fun details about the Refuge and its wildlife
• FREE SHIPPING to any U.S. location!

Send a friend or family member a symbolic sponsorship today or become a Sponsor yourself! You can help keep our wild places safe, and support all the critical work the Sierra Club does to protect our environment, by giving a Wild Places Sponsorship today.

Sincerely,

Carl Pope
Executive Director
