Talented organizers and developers of leaders, along with quality policy advocacy and research. A very effective organization: small but mighty!

My family and I live too close (within 500') of an unconventional well pad. Earthworks came to our property several times this past nine months and did some video filming with their FLIR camera. All the results with the camera showed positive leakage of emissions with potential VOCs. Working with Earthworks, we managed to resolve some the issues of leaking emissions. Earthworks is a true advocate in protecting citizens of the earth and the earth itself. The world needs more nonprofit groups such as Earthworks. They are true defenders for a better living on he planet. My family and I are forever grateful for the work Earthworks does. I also spent time with advocates from Earthworks at different governmental meetings. The government officials and the audience were educated by the work Earthworks does and presents in their efforts of protecting the Earth.

I live in Erie, Colorado, a town that is heavily impacted by oil and gas development. The Earthworks Community Empowerment Project team has visited Erie several times over the past few years, working with residents to film the invisible pollution being emitted from numerous wells and facilities that exist in our neighborhoods. Their hard work helps to raise awareness and promotes accountability. This outreach is invaluable to communities like mine as we fight to create a safe and healthy environment for our families.

Earthworks has come forward to help our local, grassroots non-profit with the issues surrounding mining in our area of Patagonia, Arizona. They've been very generous with their time and expertise. It's been extremely helpful to connect with such a knowledgable organization. I look forward to more collaborations.

I truly appreciate Earthworks for what they have done for my community and what they continue to do. Earthworks has made my community aware of environmental hazards that have gone unreported by our local media. Earthworks stands up for the little guy, without them the environmental hazards would have not been corrected thus putting my family at risk. Thank you Earthworks.

Our communities in North Texas have been impacted by shale gas drilling and fracking. Due to the help of individuals working with EarthWorks, we have learned necessary facts to help educate ourselves and our community leaders about shale gas. This agency is dedicated and strong with its mission. A donation will likely help with getting the word out to individuals and communities all across our country. In Texas, especially, the pushback from the Oil and Gas Industry makes education difficult. However, because of EarthWorks we are stronger and smarter!

I'm a communications consultant. Almost uniquely among nonprofits I have worked for, Earthworks is less concerned with getting its own name in the news media than ensuring that its grassroots partners' stories are told.

Earthworks is the only national non-profit working exclusively on mining issues. Environmental destruction on that scale means the earth needs a great advocate, and it has that in Earthworks. Please support this wonderful organization with me and help reform oil, gas and hardrock mining!
