Dear DU Supporter, Just a few days remain to make a special tax-deductible gift in 2012! Few would argue that a contribution to Ducks Unlimited isn't money well spent. PLUS, your gift to DU can multiply up to four times in matching funds! This means you get four times the horsepower dedicated to supporting waterfowl and the places they call home! As we come to the close of our 75th anniversary, there's no better time to give. I hope you will consider your gift to DU today. In return, we'll send you your choice of gifts! With your help, DU has completed 75 years of protecting the landscapes that waterfowl need to survive, as well as our hunting heritage and traditions. However, we need your support now more than ever to hit the ground running in 2013! Thank you for your continued support and best wishes for the coming new year. Jim West Ducks Unlimited Chief Fundraising Officer P.S. Because Ducks Unlimited, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) charity any amount you donate by December 31 may be deductible for 2012 income tax purposes. Please see your tax advisor for actual deductibility. Make your donation now!

Duck numbers rise but habitat threatened in all areas of North American continent

Ducks Unlimited celebrates 75th birthday

Dear DU Supporter, As we celebrate our 75th Anniversary we want to thank our DU members and volunteers who have enabled us to achieve important victories for wetlands and waterfowl. Together we've conserved more than 12 million acres of vital waterfowl habitat across North America. But right now... We have a real fight on our hands. The challenges we face today are more serious than ever. The rate of wetlands loss has increased 140% in the last seven years. Since 1950 U.S. wetland loss equals more than the surface area of Lakes Superior and Erie combined. How you can help: Support our 75th Anniversary campaign with a gift of $40 or moretoday and we will send you the DU 75th Anniversary Performance Pullover. Your donation will support DU's science-based conservation projects that aim to restore vital habitat that will benefit waterfowl and protect our hunting traditions. Together let's continue DU's legacy now and for the next 75 years. Thank you for your generous gift. Jim West Chief Fundraising Officer
