First Quarter '03 FReepathon Now Underway

Donate to Free Republic ^ | January 9, 2003 | Jim Robinson

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!

[Cool Guy]

Thanks for asking. I am doing just fine. A tad Busy. How are you doing?

POYFECT! Good job, Mo1

[Jim Robinson]

Well, the monthly donors give us a base to build on. The more monthlies the quicker the fundraisers will go. But, it works either way. Thank you very much for your support.

Without Jim_Rob, we'd be stuck with Davis press releases for news on the calpowercrisis.

That's reason enough right there.

Right now, I'm debating whether to convert to a monthly donation. I'm starting to lean that way.

Cute... I think! Been thinking about the timing of dragging out my ping list- I believe I'll try for the "morning rush" I recall reading about after 8:00 AM.

We appreciate your support very much.

As well as my (extremely humble this time) monetary contributions, I try to "support" your original goals by posting good articles and personal analysis as often as I can. Thank you once again for making that possible.

FreeRepublic still is way ahead of the lamestream media on most issues. I'm convinced that your orignial idea has been a success. You should be very, very proud of yourself. We FReepers are.

Long Live Free Republic!
