Hi A,
I'm just re-sending this email to you in case you missed it yesterday. We're getting lots of support so far -- but if you're able to chip in too, it means more beekeepers can tell their stories at Bayer's AGM. It's our best chance to make sure shareholders hear exactly how Bayer's chemicals are killing off our bees.
Can you donate too?

Original email:
You can help beekeepers make a huge impact at Bayer's annual meeting -- they want to come and speak directly to shareholders, and tell them about the mass bee die-offs they see every day in their hives.
But they can't afford to make it on their own. If you can donate, we'll make sure those beekeepers are heard.
Will you chip in to help beekeepers attend Bayer's annual meeting?

Hi A,
You and I are living in a critical time right now -- just a couple of weeks ago, we heard news that we could be on the cusp of a global food crisis.
Beekeepers around the world have seen their hives in decline for years, but they've been struggling to have their voices heard.
That's where you come in.
You can help beekeepers have a voice at Bayer's annual meeting next month and help Bayer's own shareholders make the call for change.
Can you donate to bring beekeepers to speak to Bayer's shareholders?

A UN report showed that bees and other pollinators are at a threat of a global extinction -- and we rely on them for 75 percent of our food crops.
In other words, when bees die, people starve.
We need to stop killing bees. And the best way to do that is making sure neonic pesticides get off our shelves.
The BeeDefender Alliance in Europe is taking on Bayer in a massive legal battle, and it works directly with many of the beekeepers affected by mass bee die-offs.
They wanted to know if you could help bring beekeepers directly to Bayer's annual meeting and get Bayer's shareholders to hear their stories.
If you can help bring beekeepers, SumOfUs will make sure those beekeepers can have their voices heard -- even if it means giving up our own place at the meeting.
Can you help out?
