Dear friend:

There has never been more momentum for turning back the tide of sprawl and making our communities more sustainable—environmentally, socially, and economically. Much progress has been made, but we face more resistance than ever in Washington and state capitols all over the country. The next two years will be critical to the future of our communities and our nation.  

So please, become a member of our organization today.

I founded the Partnership for Sustainable Communities to lead the fight to promote sustainable planning and community development and I run the organization on a completely unpaid basis. But we cannot achieve our mission without your help.

We are not affiliated with the U.S. intergovernmental partnership for sustainable communities, and we do not receive any local, state or federal funding. We do not receive foundation support. We depend on membership dues for financial survival.  Help us keep the momentum going. Please join today, and if you can, add on a donation.

Thank you, Andre Shashaty, President
