2011 Annual Report - Financial Information

Our Thanks

350.org works with a huge number of individuals, organizers, organizations, and funders in order to do the work that we do. The thing that connects us to all these people is the commitment to the bold vision for change that steering a course to 350ppm demands. Everyone, from the organizers we're on the phone and email with day in and day out, to the funders who support us (so that we can be on the phone and email day in and day out), has a role to play in achieving that goal.
 
Our immense thanks to the thousands of supporters around the world who have donated monetarily to strengthen our ability to work with and for the movement on climate change. Whether you saw a campaign video that moved you, participated in an event in your city, town, or village, heard Bill McKibben or another 350.org team member speak in public, or just stumbled across us googling climate change, we're grateful for your support. We're very privileged to have strong relationships with many of our funders, and fortunate that they support even our most audacious campaign plans.
