Dear Reader,

Over the last month, you probably became quite familiar with the header displayed above. Rest assured, it no longer links to a donation page, as FIRST THINGS has closed the books on its 2023 Year-End Campaign.

What a campaign it was. Thanks to your profound generosity, I am pleased to report that 1,875 readers gave a total of $1,190,805, exceeding our goal of $1,000,000 from one thousand readers.

On behalf of my colleagues, I’m writing to say: Thank you.

We are heartened and fortified by your generosity, which is enabling us to dream big in our plans to grow the reach and influence of FIRST THINGS at a critical time for our nation and the church.

After all, why shouldn’t FIRST THINGS feed many more people with essays, poems, lectures, and podcasts of substance in the new year?

And why shouldn’t FIRST THINGS be the trusted voice of smart, thoughtful, and religiously grounded commentary on the pressing questions of public life for many more people, as I trust FIRST THINGS is for you?

This is what your generous support will make possible in 2024. Thank you for standing with us.

Yours,
R. R. Reno
