“When you’re fighting moneyed interests that are very focused on getting their way, you have to fight fire with fire. That’s what Oregon Wild brings to the game.”

Jessie Powell
“I wrote a letter to Senator Wyden because of a newsletter by Oregon Wild. People always talk about civic engagement, but I had never done that until the Oregon Wild newsletter.”

Lindsay Skog
“I find a monthly contribution to be an easy way to make a more substantial contribution over the course of the year. I give up two lattes a month, a second glass of wine with dinner once a month, or pack a lunch on a day I would have otherwise eaten out.”
