Our goal for this fundraiser is the same as last quarter: $65,000. We have about $4,000 per month coming in from monthly donors so we will need to raise approx $53,000 to hit the target.
The funds raised through these fundraisers are used to pay our operating costs. Free Republic operates on an approximate $260,000 annual budget (breakdown here) and all funds are provided by donations from FReepers and Lurkers.
Thank you all very much for your continued support.
P.S. We are planning to make FreeRepublic.com email addresses available as a thank you to all who donate at least once per year. This new feature should be ready to go within a few days. We will post a notice and a link for donors to setup their FR email address as soon as it's ready.
Donate to FR and help us keep the lights on for the best political forum on the NET!
(....is there a Doctor in the house...?)
LOL!
John Robinson at least has it fixed now so that anything you bungle doesn't carry over to the next hundred posts. It's a lot safer to experiment now than it used to be.
This one of those situations where I should try to think before I act.
(I wonder that THAT will be like?)
John has some plans to get rid of the uglies. One new feature we're planning is allowing each donor to have a directory on an FR server where they can upload photos, images and sound files, etc, for use on their FR profile page and for posting to the forum. As a bonus, once they're on one of our own servers there is less of a security risk and we can allow embedding sound files on the profile pages again.
This is very cool.
TigersEye and I showed much 'appreciation' last quarter with $100 donation. That was a stretch for us. I would like to become monthly donors, but really, shouldn't I ask my husband first? ( ;
the tag like was a leftover from here:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/820065/posts?q=1&&page=87#87
And that was just a "general purpose BUMP", not directed at anyone.
Kinda like this one.
Interesting thread you were on there. God works in mysterious ways. I've bookmarked it.
Only after you've given him his answer....

Any FReeper or Lurker who makes a regular monthly donation to Free Republic by credit card, check, or PayPal may add his/her screen name to this list by simply FReepmailing the message "I am a monthly donor" to me or just declaring themselves on the FReepathon thread.
This list is completely voluntary. No name is added without permission. The list is posted periodically during fundraisers on the FReepathon thread .
We want to see this list expand until we have thousands of FReepers and Lurkers to make certain that Free Republic, the best conservative website on the internet, will continue to be here and grow. Thank you all for your support!

BTW...Mr. Robinson, how many OFFICIAL Ongoing Daily Non-Political Threads do we now have on FreeRepublic.com?! I was just wonderin' if this proliference of "NON-POLITICAL" Threads--run by some great people who I consider to be good FRiends--doesn't have a link to the Ol'TimerFReepers who complain--unbeknownst to many--that FReepin' ain't quite the fun it was back in the OldenDays of FR.com.?!
FWIW...count me in fer a HunnerdBucks, Mr. Robinson...yer doing an incredible job with this Forum and I'm sooooo glad the TagLines are back...LOL!!
