Friend,

Follow the money, they say. So here’s a start: Common Dreams doesn’t take a dime of corporate advertising. Never have. Never will.

Our funding comes from the best people in the world — people who believe in our lower-case common dreams — and are willing to fight to see those dreams come true.

Where does the funding come from that supports our work that you know and trust? From readers who believe in our nonprofit mission: To inform. To inspire. To ignite change for the common good.

The funding comes from people reading emails like this and deciding our work is worth supporting. It’s that simple. There is only you, and now, with just four days in our campaign and still a long way to go, we need you more than ever.

So that’s why your gift of support today — no matter the size — is crucial. Every dollar counts whether you donate $10, $50, $100 or more.

There is no Plan B for Common Dreams. Your support is Plan A, and it’s the only plan we want.

With gratitude,


Jon Queally

Managing Editor

on behalf of the entire Common Dreams team
