[Jessica Malisch]

Hello Friends and supporters of the UCM NRS,
Today is the global day of giving – #GivingTuesday. Please consider supporting the great work that the UCM NRS<https://www.givecampus.com/campaigns/53295/donations/new?designation=naturalreservesystem&tc=33706> does to support research and education, and donate to one of our reserves or programs<https://nrs.ucmerced.edu/support>. And bonus, any gifts to the ¿field curious?<https://www.givecampus.com/campaigns/53295/donations/new?designation=fieldcurious&tc=33706> program, the Swarth-Fogel Undergraduate Research Scholarship<https://www.givecampus.com/campaigns/53295/donations/new?designation=swarthfogelnrsundergraduateresearchscholarshipendowment&tc=33706>, and/or the Merced Vernal Pools and Grassland Reserve<https://www.givecampus.com/campaigns/53295/donations/new?designation=mercedvernalpoolsgrasslandreserve&tc=33706> will be matched!
If all donor pledges are matched, the UCM Natural Reserve System will raise almost $12,000 in just 24 hours. Thank you for your support of UCM NRS research and education!
Here are some examples of how your donation can be used:

        *
$25 donation can provide a field notebook and field guide to a student naturalist.
        *
$100 donation can provide a ¿field curious? backpack to a UC Merced student.
        *
$500 donation can support the cost of one student to attend a ¿field curious? weekend immersion.
        *
Your contributions to the Swarth-Fogel Fund help build up the endowment so we can continue to support research scholarships for UC Merced undergraduates
        *
Your contributions to the MVPGR will help support activities associated with the new Field Education Research Center
