Dear friends,
Restore the Delta is the only Delta public interest organization that will be representing all the beneficial uses of water with the State Water Resources Control Board to stop the tunnels permitting process this year.
That means that with our membership partners we are representing the water needs of everyone in the Bay-Delta region: from growers to farm workers; from urban businesses to in-Delta businesses; from Delta drinking water users to lovers of the San Francisco Bay; from boaters to recreational fishermen; from wealthy landowners to members of the environmental justice community; from Sandhill cranes to Delta smelt. We believe that our case, the statistical and narrative facts of the millions of people tied to the estuary, in addition to necessity for species protections, will be the most compelling factual stories made to the State Water Resources Control Board to stop the Delta Tunnels.
It is not Restore the Delta's intention to grow the organization permanently in a manner in which we are always looking for extra funding from our supporters. However, we need additional funding and consistent contributions over the next two years so that staff can stay focused fully on the battle at hand. We need to keep construction from happening. If every one of our members donated $25.00, we would be financially sound until his term finishes.
We appreciate your past help and generosity. Whatever you can give during this period of ramping up for the fight, we appreciate greatly.

Thank you for your support!
Yours in service,
Barbara Barrigan-Parrilla, Executive Director
