CBF’s Board of Trustees has offered to bring CBF members a special matching gift opportunity for Giving Tuesday. That means your gift to restore the national treasure we all love will be DOUBLED!

We’ve set an ambitious goal of raising $75,000 for Giving Tuesday this year. That’s enough to add one and a half million water-filtering oysters to the Bay or plant almost thirteen thousand pollution-reducing trees! And thanks to the Board of Trustees’ commitment to a healthy Bay, your gift to save the Bay and its rivers and streams this Giving Tuesday will be matched dollar-for-dollar until we reach $800,000. Here’s how your gift will be worth 2X:

• $35 becomes $70 and can plant 12 native trees, which slow polluted runoff and soil erosion.
• $50 becomes $100 and can plant 2,000 native oysters, which can filter up to 50 gallons of water a day per oyster.
• $250 becomes $500 and can teach five future stewards how to restore the Bay.
• $500 becomes $1,000 and can build 20 reef balls that provide home to growing oysters.

Thank you for your continued commitment to restoring and protecting the Bay, its rivers, and its streams.

Save the Bay for Giving Tuesday!
