Greenpeace
is an independent campaigning organisation that uses non-violent, creative confrontation to expose global environmental problems and to force solutions which are essential to a green and peaceful future.

Independence

The money to win global campaigns comes from people like you. 94% of our global income comes from individual donations, including bequests and major donors. Greenpeace also accepts gifts from grant-giving charitable foundations.


Over 2,600,000 people are active financial supporters; they live in 101 different countries throughout the North and South. They may have joined online, when they were asked in the street or maybe even after they saw Greenpeace TV documentary. However the relationship started, their ongoing support and commitment is changing the world.

Greenpeace also draws strength and support from a rapidly growing base of 'cyberactivists' - a community of internet citizens already numbering 100,000 from over 100 countries who are dedicated to using the web as an activist platform. Cyberactivists register for free, receive regular alerts of online actions, get space for a home page at the Cyberactivist Centre, and participate in one of the web's most innovative activist discussion centres.

This online community is also involved with projects ranging from translation of critical campaign information into different languages to assisting in cutting territorial boundary lines through the Amazon Rainforest to mark protected forest lands.

Greenpeace does not solicit or accept funding from governments, corporations or political parties. Greenpeace neither seeks nor accepts donations which could compromise its independence, aims, objectives or integrity. Greenpeace relies on the voluntary donations of individual supporters, and on grant support from foundations.

So, your gift really does make a difference.
