I was crunching some numbers ahead of our June 30 FEC deadline, and pulled a statistic that I wanted to share with you.
Donations from emails like this one make up more than 30% of all donations received by our campaign.
That is a powerful number. Not many campaigns can say that nearly one-third of all their donations come from grassroots, small-dollar donors. And not many can say that they don’t accept a single cent from corporate PACs or lobbyists.
That’s what makes this movement so special. It’s a movement funded by $1, $3, and $10 donations, given by teachers, nurses, retirees, and restaurant workers who are giving all they can because they believe in our fight for a $15 minimum wage, Medicare for All, and a Green New Deal.
Donations to emails like this one go a long way in a grassroots movement like ours. From launching digital ads to spread our values far and wide to funding on-the-ground organizing efforts ahead of Ro’s re-election campaign, it is vital that we don’t fall behind on our email fundraising.
Becoming a grassroots donor and a member of this movement doesn’t require having millions of dollars or powerful connections – all it requires is a commitment to our shared progressive values and that you donate what you can, when you can.
Thank you for your ongoing support, and for helping grow this program day after day.
–Cooper Teboe
