You see it happening—fewer bees in the garden, fewer butterflies on your hikes. The pollinators—as well as birds, bats, frogs, and other wildlife whom we love—are disappearing, and there is no mystery as to why. The indiscriminant overuse of pesticides, habitat loss, and food systems that reduce rather than augment biodiversity are all partly to blame. 

 

The good news is: these are all threats that you can—and are—tackling head-on at the state and local levels. Colorado is becoming a haven for pollinators and the ecosystems they support, thanks to you getting involved, whether that's in the garden, at the hive, at your local park or schoolyard, with your City Council, or at the state Capitol—and PPAN is with you every step of the way. 

 

This Colorado Gives Day—between now and December 9th—please help us raise $50,000 for the little creatures whose lives sustain all life on earth. 

 

Every new monthly donation of $100 or less will be matched in full through Dec. 9th; and every dollar you give qualifies us for new matching donations from Colorado Gives Foundation!
