Dear Green Guardians,<\/span><\/p>\n

My name is Jennifer and I am the International Executive Director at Greenpeace International. I would like to take a moment today to say a big THANK YOU to you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You see, today is International Legacy Giving Day. It\u2019s a day where organisations and wonderful causes all around the globe highlight the importance of donors like you who have decided to leave a gift in their will to their favourite charity. Today is also a day where we celebrate the immense impact your legacy gift can have.<\/span><\/p>\n

To many the current state of the world is alarming. From burning forests to oceans choking in single-use plastic, mass extinctions and climate change-induced weather patterns there is much to worry about.<\/span><\/p>\n

But, as head of Greenpeace, I can see the power that each and every one of us hold. I can see what we achieve every day for a better world and this gives me hope. Because in you, in our supporters, we have power.<\/span><\/p>\n

Through your pledge to leave a gift to Greenpeace in your will you are adding to that power for years to come. It takes a special kind of person to leave such a thoughtful gift. It\u2019s important to me that I thank you personally today.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you for thinking of future generations who will inherit this beautiful planet.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you for trusting us in continuing to fight dirty oil producers, corporate polluters, and unethical governments.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you for your gift to Greenpeace in your Will. You inspire us each and every day.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\tLeave a gift in your will\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Leaving a gift in your Will to Greenpeace is a way to put your beliefs into action, long after your lifetime. Any gift, large or small, will help our shared work to create a more green and peaceful future.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t \n Take action\n <\/a>\n \t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/section>\n\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
