Hello and Happy Saturday!
This week was full of unexpected twists and turns in a week that blew by way too fast! We can’t wait to share what’s been brewing this week with you soon!
We also have been continuing to talk to our North Dakota State Legislators this week. These talks have been very insightful, and we are hopeful that there is more that can be done on a state level for them to continue to advocate with us as we continue to Fight for the Spirit of the Badlands!
Stay tuned!
The last two months have been a whirlwind! We are in the process of cleaning up and adding some organization to our website. That includes adding your comment letters! Please email us your comment letter if you would like us to add it to our website. If you have thoughts or ideas on what you would like to see on our website, please let us know! You can email us at info@chwha.org
Our silent auction is coming to an end!
Have you checked out the GREAT items in our online silent auction? If you have, have you checked your bid lately?
You can view the items and place/check your bids here: https://chwha.betterworld.org/auctions/chwha-giving-hearts-day-silent-a
How it works:
Each item in the auction has a starting bid. Bids must be increased in $1 increments.
The auction ends TOMORROW (December 3rd) at 8 pm MST.
“Popcorn Bidding” is enabled for ALL bids! What does that mean?
If someone submits a bid within the last 10 minutes of the auction, the bidding for that item automatically extends for an additional 10 minutes.
100% of the money raised in this auction goes to help us with our critical advocacy work. This campaign will go into our Giving Hearts Day matching fund. We need to raise at least $3,000 by January. We have set a matching fund goal of $10,000. Can you help us?
Why do we have such an enthusiastic goal?
Our advocacy work does not come without a cost. We have website fees, subscription fees for things like zoom and every action, we have our billboard and printed materials that we pass out. We also have legal fees both from this last comment period and for future legal costs we are anticipating when the Park comes back with their decision in the spring. We are trying to be proactive, especially when it comes to raising money for our anticipated future legal fees!
Our silent auction is a GREAT way to help us! There are also several ways you can donate to us listed on website: https://chwha.org/support-chwha/
Chasing Horses Wild Horse Advocates is a 501(c )3 organization, so any donation you make is 100% tax deductible! We have said before and many of you have asked, the ONLY organization offering any financial support to us as we continue this fight is American Wild Horse Campaign (AWHC). They have done this with their own separate billboard in Dickinson and also by signing onto our comment letter with us and agreeing to pay part of the legal fees associated with that. They have also been consulting with us for years and offering us advice and sharing their insights with us. If you have specific questions this or anything we are doing here at CHWHA, please don’t hesitate to ask us in a PM or an email. We aim to be as transparent as possible!
Thank you for your support and have a GREAT day!
