Hello,
More than 50 years ago, a devastating oil spill off our coast sparked a powerful movement.
In 1970, our community came together to organize one of the first Earth Day celebrations — and the Community Environmental Council was born.
This weekend, we will gather again.
Earth Day is a reminder of what’s possible when a community comes together to demand change and build solutions.
But today, we are once again facing efforts to expand fossil fuels and roll back progress.
We can’t go back.
To meet this moment, CEC is working to raise $75,000 by May 15 — and every gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar.
Whether you join us this weekend or support this work from afar, you can be part of what comes next.
Join us at the Santa Barbara Earth Day Festival ?
Make your matched gift ?
In Community,
Community Environmental Council
P.S. Every gift helps carry the spirit of Earth Day forward and will be doubled for a limited time.
