It will be very easy for you to say, "Well, I will do something, some day. When I can afford it, I am going to." But would you let an old "grad" tell you one thing now? Giving is a habit. Get into the habit now, because you will never be able to afford to give and contribute, thus to repay the obligation you owe to those people who made this college possible, if you wait until you think you can afford it. Start now regardless of how small, and in the days to come when you are confronted with demands for many worthwhile causes and charities I think you will find that you will give dutifully to all the worthy ones. But here and there you will pick one or two that will be favorites, and you can do no better than to pick this, your Alma Mater, because you will not only be repaying your own personal obligations, you will be making your contribution to the very process which has made and continues to keep America great.
This democracy of ours which sometimes we've treated so lightly, is more than ever a comfortable cloak, so let us not tear it asunder, for no man knows once it is destroyed where or when he will find its protective warmth again. - Ronald Reagan
Help keep the dream alive!
Imagine if there was no Free Republic... gasp!
- No Sore Loserman protests to save an election...
- No Washington Times Ad pushing Congress to Impeach...
- No exposing of traitorous public officials...
- No media watchdog to ferret out the bias...
- No Breaking News...
For these reasons and a thousand others, please support Free Republic
While the large donations are exciting, the small ones may be more treasured ...... they may actually be sacrificial. So don't be reluctant to give if your donation can only be $5 or $10 ..... those are vital to the success of FR. And bumps help, too! :-) - posted by WillaJohns -
If you feel strongly that Free Republic has made a difference and you want to see it continue on, please send in a donation of whatever your heart moves you to send.

Thank you Oregon.
Challenge to all Washington state freepers!
If 10 registered Washington state freepers donate at least $10 each a challenger will donate another $100!
Connectthedots reduced that number to nine with a generous donation.
Come on Washington state one down - nine to go!
Come on make our day!
$30 for the first $5 monthly donation from each of the following states!
Alaska (Alaska has given sacrificially and we will also honor a monthly if it comes in)
Hawaii (Hawaii has proven to be very generous but we will still honor our committment for a monthly if it comes in)
South Dakota (a monthly has been donated from South Dakota, so we all owe $5 each!)
Delaware (Delaware has stepped up to the plate but we will also honor a monthly if it comes in)
Idaho (a monthly has been donated from Idaho, so we all owe another $5 each!)
West (by God) Virginia
Wyoming
Montana
Rhode Island
We run these fundraisers 4 times a year because there's never enough money on hand to pay the bills longer than that.
Each fundraiser we add to the number and amount of monthly donations and we are s l o w l y reaching the point where there could be enough coming in each month to pay the fixed bills. (The legal defense is a whole other story)
Monthly donations give us a steady, dependable source of funds which we can use not just to pay the bills, but for planning how we can grow the site and make it better.
Do you subscribe to your local paper or a magazine? Do you get even half the information from it that you get from FreeRepubic? Of course not. Why not cancel that newspaper or magazine and send the money to FreeRepublic to ensure it's always here when you click that URL www.freerepublic.com
Monthly donations are easy to set up. Use the credit card link and make your intentions known. BADJOE will do all the rest. You can change or cancel your monthly donation at any time using the same link.... no questions asked.
Your personal information is entirely confidential. No one but BADJOE knows who contributes and he only gets the name you use on the credit card. He can't crossreference that to your screen name even if he wants to.
Set up your monthly donation today and move on to guilt free FReeping!
Help FreeRepublic fulfill it's destiny of helping this Nation fulfill it's destiny............
How about getting some of your friends over here if you've already donated? And don't forget...............we love bumps!
