Bee Generous! Give the Gift of Bee Research this Holiday Season

This holiday season, give the gift of bee research to a loved one who cares about supporting the health of our food systems, ecosystems, and our friends, the bees.

Click here to donate online, or mail your tax-deductible contribution to Coevolution Institute/Pollinator Partnership, 423 Washington St., 5th Fl., San Francisco, CA 94111.

When you donate, we'll e-mail you a full-color certificate for you to present to your friend or family member stating, "A donation has been made this holiday season in your honor to support Honey Bee Health Research. The Pollinator Partnership of the North American Pollinator Protection Campaign thank you for your contribution to science and to healthy agriculture and ecosystems."

The recent mysterious disappearance of tens of thousands of honey bees, known as Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD), has confirmed that we don't know enough about bees and other pollinators. Your contribution toward honey bee research will help support programs that are helping us solve this problem.

In addition to aiding our bee research, your gift will help us work to understand and promote genetic stock improvements, understand and promote best management practices for commercial bee keeping, and promote forage opportunities for colonies on public and private land.

The Pollinator Partnership's comprehensive approach to honey bee health is only possible thanks to your generosity. Thank you for choosing to support honey bee health this holiday season -- it's a great reason to "bee" merry!
