To better support and sustain our work in the Adirondacks,
we have launched a $20,000 Matching Fund Campaign to Sustain Excellence in Research
to continue quality expert programming on the key issues facing the region. We
have already raised $12,000 through gifts from generous donors and our Board of
Directors. We are asking our corporate partners, members and friends to
consider a matching gift toward our final goal. Contributions of any size are
appreciated, and will be matched dollar-for-dollar, doubling the impact. Please
consider a tax deductible donation with a <a href="http://www.adkresearch.org/contact/donation.asp"><span style="color: blue;">credit card</span></a> or by check
today.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Please, we need your help!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>There has never been a greater need for science and research to inform
policies impacting the future of the Adirondacks!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Thank you!<o:p></o:p></div>
