The end of the year is almost here. You may hear from us more often this time of year, but it is not without reason. The Xerces Society is a donor-supported, nonprofit organization and December is the most critical month of the year for our fundraising efforts. Over these next few weeks, we must raise the funds needed to fuel our work in 2025. We are so grateful to have smart, kind, and generous folks like you in our community. THANK YOU for your support!
