Support GGA: CLIMATE SMART WITH PG&E

 

The program has been extended! During the month of November, sign up for PG&E's ClimateSmart program and the Golden Gate Audubon Society can receive a donation up to $25,000.  Joining the Audubon Society is one way to help the environment.  The ClimateSmart program is another.  ClimateSmart makes it easy to reduce your home or business' environmental impact.  When buildings use natural gas and electricity, they produce greenhouse gas emissions (GHG). As a ClimateSmart contributor, you balance out those emissions by making a 100% tax-deductible contribution to fund GHG capture or reduction projects.  The average home's typical contribution is less than $5 a month. Click here to enroll and learn more about becoming a climate neutral home or business.  When you sign up in November, pick the Golden Gate Audubon Society as your charity of choice and PG&E will donate back to the organization on your behalf, up to $25,000.  The more people that sign up and choose GGA, the larger donation it can receive...so pass this message on to a friend!
