This GivingTuesday, your help is urgently needed to save the bees. Hurricanes Helene and Milton have wiped out plant forage and damaged beehives, threatening the starvation of billions of bees used to pollinate food crops across the country.
Greater Good Charities has already provided 41,000 gallons of syrup and nearly 40,000 pounds of pollen substitute to beekeepers in Florida, feeding more than 6.1 billion bees. We’ve also provided 15,000 pounds of sugar to North Carolina beekeepers to help feed their hives. But our work is far from finished. We need your help to deliver 3 more rounds of food to ensure bees can survive through the winter.
Donate today and help us reach our goal of $300,000 of aid for beehives in need.
This GivingTuesday, you can help preserve species like the honeybee to protect our planet's future. These tiny bees do much more for our agriculture than just producing honey! Losing these colonies would permanently wreak havoc on our country's food supply. As bees interact with plants and spread pollen, they fertilize plant life across the country, which in turn feeds our families and communities. Losing their pollination would permanently wreak havoc on our country’s food supply.
Bees are crucial to our food systems because they pollinate 90% of flowering plant species. But Hurricanes Helene and Milton impacted almost 200,000 hives. Without intervention, our food system could collapse. This GivingTuesday, you can help provide sugar syrup and pollen substitute to repopulate bee hives.
