Contribute to EarthShare at your workplace: it's so easy 

As summer comes to a close, we all think back on the beautiful places we had the chance to enjoy during the great outdoor season - the beaches, high desert, crystal-clear rivers and craggy mountains.  And now as the sunny months leave us, we can do more than just enjoy the environment.  

We can do something to protect the treasures of this state for future generations.   

Solar Oregon is a proud member of EarthShare Oregon. What does this mean to you? You and your fellow employees can choose to have contributions sent automatically to your favorite Oregon conservation groups, including Solar Oregon. Since your contribution is spread out over the course of a year, the amount deducted from your paycheck is minimal, and all gifts are tax-deductible.

If your workplace is not currently involved in an EarthShare giving campaign, establishing one is easy. EarthShare will work with your employer to set up a program that meets your company's needs.

Oregon's natural beauty and livability is legendary. With your contribution to EarthShare, you can share in the responsibility for protecting these gifts. For more information, please contact Meghan Humphreys at EarthShare: (503) 223-9015 or meghan@earthshare-oregon.org; or visit www.earthshare-oregon.org
