***MATCH COMPLETE, WELCOME 2026!***

HOWEVER...Gifts are still being accepted here on this page to help us get off to a great 2026!

For those of you who gave so generously, THANK YOU!

And while the campaign has ended, we're never done raising the funds that support our work planting pollinator habitat, funding research and education and advocating for the bee, the beekeeper and bee-stewards around the country.

2X - Your Impact Before December 31

Bees just lived through one of their hardest years in decades. Colonies crashed at staggering rates. Farmers struggled to pollinate crops. And every indicator points in the same direction: they need help fast.

A donor stepped up with a 2X match to keep this work moving.

Your gift hits twice as hard during this window.

Your 500 becomes 1,000
Your 1,000 becomes 2,000
Your 5,000 becomes 10,000

And those dollars go straight to real impact: habitat on working farms, research that keeps hives healthy, and education that reaches the people who can change outcomes on the ground.

Give in 2025
Maximize your support before new tax laws kick in!

Why giving in 2025 matters?

New tax rules roll out in 2026 that could reduce how much many donors can deduct. This year is an opportunity to make your gift count both for bees and for your tax planning. If you’ve been thinking about giving a larger amount, this is the year to do it.

The clock is running.
The match is active.

Help us reach the full ~~$20,000~~ 2X Match and strengthen the future of pollinators.

Bee populations are crashing.
But you can help change the story.

Bees pollinate one in three bites of our food. When they struggle, everything built on top of them starts to wobble: fruit, nuts, vegetables, livestock feed, biodiversity, the whole web that makes life work.

And this year tested them. Hard.

Weather extremes. Habitat loss. Pathogens sweeping through commercial hives.

Your gift helps stop the slide.

What people can do right now?

Support work that protects the pollinators holding our food system together. A world with fewer bees is a world with less food, less stability, and less future. Your donation today is doubled and goes to the work that keeps them alive.

Save the Bee

Founded in 2012, Save the Bee (www.savethebee.org) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit (EIN 88-2062693) on a mission to help bees and humans thrive. Bees are crucial to our survival, pollinating 75% of the fruits, nuts, and vegetables that keep us healthy. Bees enable forage for our livestock, fiber for our clothing, and of course, honey! Yet, bees face critical threats from pesticides, diseases, and habitat loss. Save the Bee funds research on bee and hive health, plants millions of square feet of pollinator habitat, and inspires and educates the next generation of beekeepers, bee enthusiasts, and bee habitat stewards.
