The Free Republic first quarter '03 FReepathon is now underway!

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!

This is my testimony about how easy, accurate, and honest is the monthly donor program.

When the freepathons come up, they're not a worry to me because of the monthly donation program.

I've never had a problem with the monthly deductions to my credit card, and FR keeps me up with any changes that are coming. The security is exemplary and I'd recommend the monthly route to anyone.

Best of all....it helps FR's own Jim Robinson put his time into making this the best web site anyplace, instead of putting his time into raising cash.

Thanks for all you do.

Only 32 monthly donors in California? :-o

Come on California!!! T'ings are bad but We need to step it up a bit.

I'm just as poor as the next person here in this Gol'Darn State (altho the gov't says we're rich) but once ya get it set up on a monthly billing basis, It is actually quite painless!

And to All those of you Lurking* and in states that have no income tax, Let's get goin'!!!

This is one of the most cost effective means of fighting the Tide of Socialism in this state and country... With an excellent ROI... Plus you get to meet all kinds of nice people (tho' We do tend to get in some pretty good semantic and ideological tussles from time to time.. And Loving It!!)

* To those of you on tight budgets and unable to contribute, that's OK too. When ya hit the big Lotto, you can buy us all a beer on the beach at Waikiki! ;-)

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.

LOL .. But you have to admit some of those bungles were kind of funny

If everyone gave just a few dollars each month, we'd never have to hold another FReepathon!)

If everyone gave one dollar a month, we'd never hold another FReepathon.. ;-)

Thanks for the heads up, Mudboy.

By pinging everyone from the list carried over from the previous FReepathon, non-registered names used to be identified and excluded when previewed before posting. I guess that has been changed.

I posted earlier that we who live in Kalifornicator should be monthly donors just for a little payback to the rest of the nation for having the Pelosi, the Boxer, the ChiFi Frankenstein, the Waxman, and the Grayout Davis in office.

These Rats not only inflict pain and misery on Kalifornians, they inflict pain and misery on all Americans.

Don't ask me about anyone's posting rights?

I'm just one of the little donors/cogs who gets to visit Free Republic. I have zero control over anything.
