<strong>2012</strong><br />
Campaign for <strong>Prairie</strong>s<br />
Please keep the natural wealth of our prairies in mind when you<br />
consider your end-of-year charitable giving. With no office and only<br />
two staff members, the <strong>Missouri</strong> <strong>Prairie</strong> Foundation’s (MPF’s) overhead is low, and directs all<br />
contributions to fulfilling our on-the-ground conservation, education, and outreach work.<br />
MPF’s <strong>2012</strong> fundraising goal to cover all expenses is $250,000. With your help, we have<br />
accomplished an impressive amount of work this year—including on-going prairie<br />
protection, advocacy for native grassland-friendly conservation policies, and expansion<br />
of native plant promotion through the Grow Native! program.<br />
We hope you can support our conservation<br />
work with a tax-deductible donation.<br />

Thank you for your continued support<br />
of <strong>Missouri</strong>’s prairies. We can’t do our<br />
work without you.<br />

“I am so impressed by what the<br />
<strong>Missouri</strong> <strong>Prairie</strong> Foundation<br />
accomplishes with such a small<br />
budget and so little staff. You<br />
should get some kind of efficiency<br />
award—you are raising the bar<br />
for charity efficiency. Keep up the<br />
good work.”<br />
—Francine Cantor, MPF member, St. Louis, MO<br />
“I’ve enjoyed reading several recent<br />
issues of the <strong>Missouri</strong> <strong>Prairie</strong><br />
Journal more than any other<br />
magazine in recent memory. And<br />
I subscribe to The Economist,<br />
Bird Watchers Digest, National<br />
Geographic, Environmental<br />
History and a half dozen others<br />
that are pretty good reading. Not<br />
only is the content interesting and<br />
readable, but the design is also<br />
excellent.”<br />
—Dr. Rupert Cutler, MPF member, Roanoke, VA.<br />
(former editor of Virginia Wildlife, managing editor of<br />
National Wildlife, president of Defenders of Wildlife,<br />
and assistant secretary of agriculture in charge of the<br />
USDA Forest Service in the Carter Administration)<br />
