*[Enwl-eng] Together we can half the number

I’m writing to ask for your help.

Behind every WeMove Europe campaign stand people like you and me. The more 
of us that pile in together, the higher our chances of winning.

For every campaign we run, we take action big and small in support. From 
running events to producing videos. It’s all funded by everyday people like 
you and I. Just by chipping in a few euros here and there, we make great 
things happen. This is what people-power is all about.

But each time we ask for donations, some people decide to unsubscribe.

This is bad. Our power comes from speaking up together - the less of us 
there are, the harder it will be to stand up to the likes of Big Pharma or 
the greedy corporations exploiting our planet for profit. That’s why I’m 
asking you to help us solve this - by setting up a regular donation.

I’ve crunched the numbers, and if 812 of us start chipping in just €3 a week 
now, we could cut our fundraising appeals in half. Meaning our community 
retains its size and strength to speak up.

So, if you believe our community should remain powerful and relevant now 
more than ever, will you help us solve this problem?

Use the buttons below to start a regular donation - you'll select the weekly 
amount you want to donate and then will be shown a summary of how much will 
be debited each calendar month.

Asking for donations is the last thing I want to do - and if you can’t 
donate, requests like this can be tough to read. But running ambitious 
campaigns to solve the challenges Europe faces costs money. Challenges such 
as keeping toxic pesticides, like glyphosate, out of our food. Or making 
sure it doesn’t pay to burn Europe’s forests instead of protecting them for 
generations to come.

So we’re stuck. We need the money - but we don’t want to lose people like 
you who make this community powerful.

We don’t take a single cent from companies or governments - so when our 
community faces challenges like this, it’s people like us who can turn 
things around. Here’s a few ways we did just that this past year:

  1.. We came together to demand a new approach to farming in Europe, 
calling for a better deal for people and the planet. From donating to cool 
protest actions in Brussels, we got our messages in front of the European 
Commission - the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) favours agribusiness, not 
Europeans.
  2.. We pushed back when agricultural giants tried to fence off our natural 
world for profit by claiming ownership of dozens of crops – Pairing 
in-person protests with social media outcry to show the true scale of 
opposition.
  3.. We ensured that legal action could get underway when the Greek police 
fired tear gas on people at the border – Putting resources behind a joint 
complaint to the EU Commission to start an infringement procedure against 
Greece.
These were big bold moves we made. But, they only worked because we had the 
resources to move fast. This will not be possible without the small 
sustaining donations that keep us secure.

So, will you please start chipping in regularly today? Even a small amount - 
like €1 or €2 a week - would really make a difference.

      Chip in €1
      Chip in €3
      Chip in €5
      Chip in another amount



Thank you,

PS: Asking for donations is never fun, but receiving them keeps our 
community alive. That’s why I ask. It’s a critical time for Europe - how our 
leaders choose to emerge from this pandemic will define our future. If you 
can donate, your contribution will help keep us agile and equipped to keep 
campaigning for a better Europe.



WeMove Europe is an independent and values-based organisation that seeks to 
build people power to transform Europe in the name of our community, future 
generations and the planet.
