The Oregon Toxics Alliance is proud to announce that the Oregon-based, all-organic company, Mountain Rose Herbs has been motivated by OTA’s important work and has pledged to match your donation made before December 31st, 2009 (up to $2,000)! This allows you the rare opportunity to double the impact of your donation.

Here is what your donation will help OTA make possible:

What the Research Proves: Pesticides cause neurological damage and brain cancer.

What OTA is Doing: We are working to pass a law that requires the State of Oregon to follow a “pesticides as a last resort” policy in all public buildings and facilities, including parks and roads, and to protect Oregonians and our native fish population from aerial pesticide spray.

What the Research Proves: Idling a vehicle more than 20 seconds not only emits cancer-causing fumes and greenhouse gases, it’s also bad for your motor and uses more fuel than driving.

What OTA is Doing: OTA is pressing for No Idling policies that encourage drivers to shut off their car in parking lots, driveways and drive-thrus.

What the Research Proves: Chemicals leaching from common consumer products are found in mother’s breast milk, umbilical cord blood and in the bodies of everyday people.

What OTA is Doing: We are working in coalition with state and national groups to pass laws that require manufacturers to disclose all chemicals in consumer products and to ban those known to be endocrine disruptors and carcinogens.

Together with you, our supporter, The Oreon Toxics Alliance can enact our broad strategy to leave a long-lasting legacy for Oregon of clean air, healthy bodies and a toxic-free environment.

That’s why we urge you to give as generously as you can to ensure Oregon Toxics Alliance has the resources to strengthen Oregon’s laws to protect your health, and your family’s health, and stop environmental harm.

Thank you for your support and for making Oregon Toxics Alliance a strong and clear voice for better environmental policies and public health protection in Oregon. This is an extraordinary moment to make a difference. Please give as generously as you can today!
