Sent from the Elakha Alliance in thanks for your wonderful donations 🥰💜 Thanks again for donating & supporting sea otter restoration in Oregon (which is wildly outside of Destiny 2 lore, F1, & Ancient Greek bullsh*t). We really do appreciate you playing along with us & our niche otter interest 🥹

A sea otter with the text: THANK YOU! $20,575

Thanks to YOU, our incredible community of Otter Advocates, the We Otter Bring Them Back campaign raised an amazing $10,575 in just one month for sea otter restoration and awareness in Oregon. And the best news? Thanks to the generous Webb Family Foundation, every dollar up to $10k was matched - bringing our grand total to a whopping $20,575 to help bring sea otters back home to the Oregon coast! This was our first time hosting a campaign like this, and we are very thankful that you took the time to help support our efforts and help spread Elakha's mission.

We also want to give a big shoutout to our campaign champions:
• Top Fundraiser - Winky W.
Raised an impressive $1,230!
Awarded to the advocate who raised the most funds in the campaign.
• Community Champion - Winky W.
With 23 individual donors, Winky inspired the highest number of people to join the movement.
• Social Media Savvy - Jenna R.
Awarded for the most creative and engaging use #WeOtterBringThemBack posts social media - otterly adorable and wildly imaginative with trivia, a sea otter mask, and more!
We're so grateful for every share, donation, and sea otter shoutout. This movement is growing stronger because of passionate people like you. Together, we otter bring them back - and we're doing it, one ripple at a time. Make sure to keep an eye out on our Events Calendar, we hope to see you soon!

For everyone complaining: we’re still on strike. We would like to work, but until we get a fair deal, our concerns regarding AI addressed, etc, we will not. I’m sorry this affects your games, but it also affects our ability to pay our rent and grocery bills.
