John, I’m going to be brutally honest with you. And I’ll keep it short. We are one of the organizations quoted in this Vice News article, and we need your help to hit our End of Month goal ASAP. Will you chip in $5 or more to help us hit goal today?
Here’s what’s at stake: Our team has quickly pivoted to a digital-focused approach to continue our work and support our LGBTQ candidates. Hopefully you’ve seen our Facebook Live events and Sunday Socials with our amazing candidates and elected officials! But while we’re so excited to bring you closer to our candidates, it can’t take the place of our in-person fundraising events, which have been cancelled for the foreseeable future. Having our candidates meet donors and supporters like you in real time and make their case is invaluable, and hard to duplicate. We certainly don’t want to cut back on our unique (and adaptive!) range of candidate services.
A lot of our candidates are on the cusp of making history. They just need a little more help to make it across the finish line on Election Day. Many had their primaries moved back, forcing them to raise more money for an unexpectedly extended campaign, so they can keep up mailings and other strategies and continue to pay for staff and their healthcare. They’re an amazing group, and we can’t let them down.
If you can chip in today to help us hit our End of Month goal, it’ll go a long way to support Victory Fund’s work and our amazing candidates. I hope you’ll stand with us.
Thank you so much for your support!
