(Late Wednesday evening)
Dear Readers,
Our Christmas donation campaign got a much-needed boost from readers Wednesday. After we sent out the second appeal message early Wednesday, 228 more readers responded with a gift to LifeSiteNews by that evening. Thank you!
The dollar total has not been added up yet but it appears to give us a good start, with individual donations ranging from $5 (thank you!) up to $500. Nine readers committed to recurring monthly gifts of various amounts.
That makes 398 readers who have donated so far. That is only a tiny portion of our large readership, and the total received covers only a fraction of our annual expenses; but it is a good beginning for which we are most grateful.
LifeSiteNews still needs far more readers to participate to make this campaign the success it must be.
We especially appeal to the thousands of regular readers who have never contributed to LifeSiteNews before – perhaps simply because we have never made the case strong enough or well enough.
For just $5 or more you receive the best pro-life, pro-family news service in the world. It’s an incredible deal. We need your support – of any amount.
Why not make that little effort and add your much needed gift to our campaign?
Anything of quality costs. Our annual expenses for 4 salaried, plus 9 hourly paid professional staff (in 4 countries) and all our technical, communications, graphics, legal, accounting and travel needs exceeds $350,000.
And yet, we are told by knowledgeable people that what we achieve with that amount is amazing. Indeed, our operating expenses are a mere fraction of those of your average news source.
So please send $5, $50, $100, $500 or any other amount. With your help, not only will LifeSiteNews.com be able to continue to produce its high quality news reports, but we will be able to implement numerous much-needed improvements, such as a LSN blog feature, video content, and improved website and daily news e-mails.
