Let your donation provide an impact all year to advance the Laudato Si’ message and transformative action for climate and ecological justice. A monthly donation of any amount allows LSM the ability to respond urgently to protect our common home and will automatically enroll you into the Monthly Sustainer Program.
TOP 5 REASONS TO JOIN
THE MONTHLY SUSTAINER PROGRAM
1. HUGE OPPORTUNITY:
There are 1.3 billion Catholics out there (1 out of 6 people worldwide!), with the majority of them still unaware of the Laudato Si’ message. Through its scalable model, LSM is committed to empowering local leaders to reach a critical mass of Catholics mobilizing for our common home. Your donation will make a real impact in the lives and communities of our Laudato Si’ Animators, circles, and chapters.
Learn more here for some flavor of our impact and recent news and here to see video testimonies from program participants.
2. TRANSFORMATIVE MESSAGE:
After decades of failed attempts to solve the ecological crisis by speaking to people’s minds, Laudato Si’ is a treasure to speak to people’s hearts. Every month, your donation helps more Catholics better understand Pope Francis’ encyclical letter and its transformative message.
Learn more here about the film The Letter and our eco-spirituality programs.
3. COLLABORATIVE APPROACH:
LSM is a bridge-builder that is uniquely positioned to work with all levels of the Catholic Church as well as with environmental leaders. LSM develops partnerships and opportunities for collaboration with the Vatican and different Church structures to join forces with other faith groups and the larger environmental movement to take collaborative action for climate and ecological justice.
4. INNOVATIVE (AND FREE) PROGRAMS:
As a monthly donor, you allow LSM to keep all of our programs, campaigns, and initiatives free of charge. LSM provides resources in 10+ languages and has created tools such as The Letter film, prayer guides, advocacy letter templates and more to help individuals and their communities better understand their role in creation care.
We encourage you to check out the tools and resources your support provides.
5. OUR HOUSE IS ON FIRE:
Sadly, the “cry of the earth and cry of the poor” cannot wait. The urgency could not be greater. From wildfires, hurricanes, and heat waves to food scarcity, extinction, the spread of diseases and much more are directly linked to the climate and environmental crises.
ARE YOU READY TO HELP SAVE OUR COMMON HOME?
Every donation helps! We see every gift that comes in and give thanks to God for you and your generosity.
Thank you for helping to advance our mission and, more importantly, thank you for helping to create a ripple effect by supporting Catholic individuals, institutions, congregations, and beyond to be equipped, empowered, and connected with others to take action in a meaningful way in their communities for climate and ecological justice.
