Holy Cow! We had an amazing day for fundraising!
In the last 24 hours you raised $1243! In that same period we added 42 new donors. Most exciting of all, we are now in first place in the Liberal Arts College competition to get the most donors by March 16th. We're ahead by 39!

This powerful research tool will help identify genes that have allowed Joshua trees to adapt to desert environments, and which could help them survive climate change.
