State Employees: It Is Easy To Support Missouri Sierra Club

Missouri State Employees Charitable Campaign (MSECC) is a program designed to make it easy for state employees to donate to their favorite non-profit organization. Although most state employees are aware of the program they may not have realized one of the charitable organizations you can donate to is the Ozark Chapter of the Sierra Club.

The Sierra Club Foundation is listed in the MSECC employee’s newsletter on page 6. You can specify your donation go directly to the Ozark Chapter Sierra Club. Our charitable donation number is 8438. We are part of the Earth Share federation. You can learn more about the MSECC Charitable Campaign at www.msecc.org.

There are many great organizations doing wonderful work. MSECC lists over 1,200. I would ask members to consider the important work the Sierra Club does here in our state as one worthy of their support. The Sierra Club is recognized as one of the most active and effective environmental groups in the nation. But we are most effective when we act locally. We have been successful in Missouri, and we need your help to continue working on a number of very important issues.

Clean air, clean water, land stewardship, forest protection, and sustainable agriculture are just a few of the areas that your donation may impact. We are one of the few organizations that have a lobbyist at the state capitol to continue to fight off the attacks at the state level to weaken our environmental protections. Your donation will be used to alert members, generate phone calls, visit impacted communities throughout Missouri and much more. We will put your money to work to protect Missouri’s environment.

Please talk up the Missouri State Employee Charitable Campaign at your work place. Tell a friend about this easy and convenient way to show your support for an organization working to insure clean air and water for our families, and for our future. You won’t notice a couple of dollars donated per pay period, but they will add up in a meaningful way.
