Here we go again Jack: We are more than one-third of the way through May, but only at 27% of our monthly fundraising goal. We need to raise $267,601 to reach our goal.

Our largest source of income to power our work comes from donations, usually of just a few dollars at a time, from our readers and activists. In fact, our average donation is just $9.44.

When you make a donation to Daily Kos, that money goes directly back into our work. It pays the salaries of our writers, editors, and advocacy campaign organizers that deliver the news you can do something about. It pays for our servers and maintenance of our website, supporting our community nationwide.

Daily Kos doesn't rely on billionaire backers or big corporate sponsors—we rely on the generosity of our community to fuel our work. Honestly, we prefer it this way because it makes us accountable to you—not to some billionaire or corporation with their own agenda. We know that in order to keep operating, we have to fight and deliver for what you believe in.

That's why I am asking for your help. Can you support Daily Kos and the work we do every day with a donation of $5, or even $9.44?

PLEASE DONATE
Thank you for all you do,
Amanda McKay, Daily Kos
