Dear FRiends: Please help us wrap up this FReepathon within the next week or so.

Time is running short for our FReepathon. We're nearing the end of the second month and we still have $17k to go. We need to wrap this up soon. If you enjoy using FR and find it worthwhile and would like to help keep it going, please consider making your donation today. Thank you very much!!

FR is funded solely by contributions made by liberty loving people like you who enjoy and use it.

We are beholden to no political party, no advertisers, no sugar daddies, no corporate string pullers, no government subsidies, no outside influences.

We are user-funded, fiercely independent and enjoy our freedom to speak openly and plainly in the support of liberty.

If you have not yet made your donation, today would be an excellent day to do so.

Every donation counts no matter how big or small. If you can donate $5, $10, $20, $50, $100 or more, it would be greatly appreciated.

Your loyal support makes Free Republic possible and your continuing participation makes FR the number one, independent, pro-life, pro-family, pro-small government, pro-defense, grassroots conservative forum on the Net!!

And we're going to need FR now more than ever to combat the current crop of Marxists and progressives who have infested our government and public institutions and who are dead set on destroying the final remnants of our cherished constitution and our precious God-given liberty!!

Please click the secure server link above or donate by mail to: Free Republic - PO Box 9771 - Fresno, CA 93794

Make it a monthly if you can. We have some very generous FReeper sponsors kicking in an extra ten bucks for every new monthly signed up. We already have 34 new monthly donors this quarter.

Or send in a hundred dollars or more per quarter and join I_be_tc's growing list of 300 Club patriots. I_be_tc sends in $100 per quarter and challenges 300 others to do the same. And we have received 142 donations of $100 or more so far this quarter. If we could get 300 FReepers to send in $100 per quarter, these FReepathons would complete much faster.

Thank you all very much!!
Your loyal support keeps FR alive and well and is truly and greatly appreciated!!
FReepers are the absolute greatest!!
God bless!!

~Jim

FR Needs Everyone to Contribute!

God Bless and Keep You All

Every Donation Counts! Make yours Monthly, if you can!

DJ, while no one can walk in another person's shoes, there are people here on Free Republic who have had similar experiences. Those who have empathy for someone in grief reach out with their best intentions to offer prayers and compassion to someone in grief. From personal experience I have been blessed and value greatly the prayers and kind words offered me.

DJ, I have written nothing except from my heart nor do I harbor a wish for anything other than the best for Onyx personally.

Unfortunately words of compassion or sincerely offered prayers posted on the Internet can be viewed as meager expressions or worse and are often subject to timing and the reader for interpretation.

God Bless you both.

*** Attention dearest FReepers, FRiends and Readers ***

When you sign up to be a NEW MONTHLY DONOR,
very generous FReepers Sponsors are donating $10.00 to FR!!!

Thank you so much, Generous FReeper Sponsors!

(Tijeras_Slim, upchuck, Chode, OwenKellogg & Tijeras_Slim again!!!
PLUS an Anonymous Donor will match Tijeras_Slim's generous donation!

During all four FReepathons in Year 2013, TWO HUNDRED & FIFTY-FIVE (255) FReepers signed up to Donate Monthly, and that meant that our very generous FReeper Sponsors DONATED an extra $2,555.00 to our beloved FR!!!

Last Quarter, we had more very, generous FReeper Sponsors @ $10.00 for every New Monthly Donor, than New Monthly Donors, but we still managed to garner approximately 55 New Monthly Donors, IIRC.

Here's hoping and praying this FReepathon's New Monthly Donor Campaign will double last Quarter's!

We're now about to close out Round #4 of our NEW MONTHLY DONOR campaign for our
2nd Quarter FReepathon!!!!!

a Cow Jumped Over the Moon!!!

(That is, aside from helping to drastically shorten FReepathons and keeping FR up and running stronger than ever!
