The Nature Conservancy Offers On-time Holiday Gift DeliveryYour gift of nature announced on whatever day you chooseARLINGTON, Va. — December 11, 2006 — The Nature Conservancy online holiday gift store is taking additional steps to make sure your gifts of nature, gifts that help protect and restore the Earth’s most critical natural places, are making timely appearances this holiday season. If you don’t order your gift by Tuesday, December 12th, the cut-off for in-house mail delivery, you still have the ability to announce your one-of-a-kind nature gifts on-time. As you give a gift of nature on the Conservancy’s nature.org web site, you can select a nature photo ecard and the date it is sent to your gift recipient. “Last year we noticed how many holiday shoppers gave our unique nature gifts a day or two before Christmas even though our web site indicated a minimum two-week delivery time. We decided to look at technology to help us better support last minute holiday shoppers,” said Sue Citro, Senior Digital Membership Manager at the Conservancy. “This year, we’re doing just that, no matter when you order, you can set-up a personalized nature ecard to announce your gift on any day you choose.” The Nature Conservancy features ecards on its popular Adopt an Acre® gift that helps protect the tropical forests of East Africa’s Rift Valley, its Rescue the Reef® gift to directly support many of the organization’s coral reef projects around the world and its Gift Membership to the organization. All gifts of nature include a number of benefits the gift recipient can enjoy throughout the whole year.

After that date, you can still announce your gift on time by selecting a nature picture e-card as well as the date it’s delivered as you order online at nature.org. The Nature Conservancy is a leading international, nonprofit organization that preserves plants, animals and natural communities representing the diversity of life on Earth by protecting the lands and waters they need to survive. To date, the Conservancy and its more than one million members have been responsible for the protection of more than 15 million acres in the United States and have helped preserve more than 102 million acres in Latin America, the Caribbean, Asia and the Pacific.
