I need to be up front with you, Jack: Daily Kos didn't reach our fundraising goal in May—this is the third month in a row that we missed our monthly goal. Now we are on track to miss our June fundraising goal too.

The past couple of years, we have seen two of our three revenue streams decline. We have to make up that difference to continue producing the quality of content and impactful actions you have come to expect from us. We increased our monthly fundraising goals this year because we really had no other choice.

Grassroots donations—averaging just $9.44—now account for 60% of our total income. In order to accomplish our mission, hit our goals, and continue producing the content and actions you trust, we need your help.

I know many of us are feeling the squeeze of the cost of living. If you can, please support Daily Kos with a donation of $5—or $9.44 today.

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

Bad news, Jack: Fundraising is lagging and we need to raise $157,289 before the end of the month. Can you please donate $9.44 right now to help us close the books on June?

PLEASE DONATE
Daily Kos set big fundraising goals this year because we had no other choice. In recent years, two of our three revenue streams have declined sharply. We survived where other news outlets failed because of you, Jack, and thousands of other readers and activists like you. We knew coming into this year that we had to increase our fundraising goals to offset further declines elsewhere.

Donations from readers like you make up more than 60 percent of our total income. These aren't big donations from millionaires I'm talking about—our average donation is just $9.44! So I'm asking you:

Please donate $9.44 right now so that Daily Kos can keep producing the content you like and trust. We can't hit this goal without you.

PLEASE DONATE
Thank you,
Michael Langenmayr, Daily Kos
