Dear NMPIRG member,
Summer will be just around the bend by the time you get this letter. You’re probably making sure that you have your travel plans lined up. Here at NMPIRG, we’ll be making sure we have enough clipboards.
The summer represents a huge opportunity for our campaign and fundraising efforts—hundreds of college students and others will spend their summer canvassing for NMPIRG.
I started out as a canvasser (I won’t tell you how many years ago that was...) and I still find canvassing such an affirming experience. One person, talking to another person, and another person, and another person, until we have the support we need to win victories like the important drug safety bill we passed last year, the introduction of a strong chemical security bill (see page 4) and many others I expect we’ll see later in the year.
Honestly, we couldn’t do this important work if people like you didn’t take the time to listen to the canvasser and get out your credit card or checkbook.
Thanks again for your support, and the support I hope you’ll renew this summer.
Sincerely,
Andre Delattre
For NMPIRG
