Greetings Carolinian Canada members & allies,

This is a pivotal time for southwestern Ontario. Pressures to local biodiversity and ecosystems are accumulating across the region and threatening the health of our communities.

As Chair of the Carolinian Canada Coalition, I invite you to cast your "vote for healthy landscapes" by helping to launch an effective response. Join me as one of 100 founders of our new Carolinian Canada Friends program and we will grow your donation by a factor of 10 in dollars and actions. Read on and you'll see how.

The environment was never front page news during recent election campaigns. We have known for some time that public resources for nature conservation are drying up, and that trend is likely to continue. If we can't look to our governments to make the necessary investments, we have to look elsewhere. We have to look to our FRIENDS.

As individual, family or group, your pledge of $100 as a Carolinian Canada Friends Founder will translate into up to $1,000 worth of green programs and actions that are powerful community drivers of positive change. The greater number of Friends, the greater the leverage factor.

Carolinian Canada Friends will receive special invitations – for eco-tours with recognized experts or to see our programs in action, for example. Our long-term plan for conservation is science-based, collaborative and realistic. Currently, we are:

  • Collaborating with health, economy and culture sectors to save the natural wealth of this region: Our Coastal and Ecosystem programs will leverage your pledge 10-fold through a mix of local, provincial and federal supporters that cross traditional boundaries.
  • Building the capacity of hundreds of groups and communities in Biodiversity Hotspots to steward rare species and habitats: Our landowner, community and youth allies will leverage your action up to 10-fold through our habitat action pledge program.
  • Growing a global model for landscape conservation by seeding ambitious and visionary ideas with diverse partners: Your pledge leverages healthy ecosystems, healthy communities and sustainable economies.

Best of all, by investing in Carolinian Canada this year, you will be one of up to 100 legacy supporters for a greener future in southwestern Ontario. With a network of over 1,200 individuals and organizations behind us, we know we can be a positive force in helping to create a vibrant, ecologically-resilient region.

Join me, as we take the next step toward a greener future. Donate $100 or more to our new Carolinian Canada Friends program and you will receive special recognition at our annual meeting and in media across the zone.

Carolinian Canada Friends also receive a one-year membership, recognition in our annual report, a charitable receipt, special event invitations - plus the satisfaction of knowing that you are making a real difference in greening the future of southwestern Ontario.

I look forward to counting you among our core supporters.

Sincerely,

Dr. Gordon Nelson,
Chair
