Hi John, it’s the Finance Team at Foushee HQ checking in.

Here’s the deal: our mid-month fundraising deadline is tomorrow at midnight, and we’ve set a goal of $10,000.

We know it’s the peak of summer, and folks aren’t checking their emails as much – but the fact is, Election Day is only getting closer and closer. Keeping our momentum high right now is the key to re-electing Valerie in November.

We’re forwarding Saturday’s email from Valerie’s campaign manager Emma where she breaks down all the campaign math. Give it a read and seriously consider donating to support Valerie today, even just $5 makes an impact.

Hi John, it’s Emma, Valerie’s campaign manager.

Right now we are in the height of July, so we’re experiencing what lots of campaigns call “the summer slump.” It refers to a sort of off period in July where folks aren’t as active and the support slows — and, unfortunately, this can have a big impact on a campaign’s winnability come November.

Our mid-month fundraising deadline is on Tuesday at midnight, and we’re ramping up to meet our $10,000 goal. It’s crucial we keep our momentum high in the summer months, so we can ensure we have the resources we need to win on Election Day.

So, if you could consider pitching in $50, $25, or even $5 right now, you would bring us that much closer to our mid-month fundraising goal and to victory in November:

Here’s a quick rundown of some campaign math for you, John: $5 is worth more now than $25 will be on Election Day.

Giving early allows us to build the critical foundation of grassroots support we need to win. With a donation of $5 we are $5 more equipped to recruit more volunteers, run more TV ads, and mobilize more swing voters – and that’s what pays off in the long run.

I know $5 might not seem like much in comparison to the GOP’s millions, but a little truly goes a long way, John. If you join the network of grassroots folks who have already given $5 this week, we’ll have the resources it takes to fight back and defend Valerie’s seat.

So please, will you give any amount – even just $5 – to help meet our $10,000 mid-month fundraising goal, get us out of this summer slump, strengthen our grassroots movement, and uplift Valerie to victory?

Thank you,

Emma
Campaign Manager
