Running Greater Greater Washington is a passion for me and our entire staff (now 8-people strong). But we also need to bring enough revenue to keep our operations going.
I’ve been looking at the budget for our policy programs and our media operations, now that we have one quarter left in the fiscal year. We want to help the program areas be as close to self-sufficient as possible, raising revenue that directly relates to their costs.
We’re not there yet, but we’re getting closer. And a contribution from you ([link removed]) would help.
Here is a chart by month of how much we’ve brought in on various revenue lines which tie into media operations: membership, giving by our board, advertising, events, and the correspondents.
That looks pretty good. How does it compare to our budget?
With membership, we’re 78% of the way there. If we can reach our goal of 50 new memberships, and an 80% renewal rate for expiring members, we’ll be on course to meet this goal. Overall, we’re 71% of the way to meeting the budget.
So, please join the Neighborhood ([link removed]) at whatever level you can, especially as a monthly donor if you are able. That helps us build a solid, ongoing base to continue to pay our editors, our fellows and correspondents, keep the server running, and more.

Sincerely,
David Alpert
