John -- At the end of August, we set a goal of raising $28,758 to help fight back against foes of fair maps in our target states but fell short of our goal.
We extended the deadline -- which ends tonight at 11:59pm -- because we’re staring a whole bunch of redistricting deadlines right in the face and need to use our resources quickly.
With only four hours left until our extended deadline, will you make a donation of any amount so that we can ensure we have enough funds to keep our work in the states agile and effective?
P.S. Did you see this message from my friend Isa from the Finance team. She explained how you can help us “continue educating, engaging, and mobilizing people effectively during map drawing.”

Chip in » Friend -- Now that states have redistricting data, we have already begun to see early drafts of maps! President Obama was right to call this time a “turning point in the redistricting process.”
We’ve been preparing for this moment for a long time. But with the delays in releasing the census data, the redistricting timelines in most states are much more condensed than we originally anticipated. And to be honest, those changes impact our budget and ability to respond to situations in our target states.
I just checked the fundraising stats from the last few days, and unfortunately, we didn’t reach our final August goal -- we fell $19,610 short.
Help us raise the final $19,610 to hit our benchmark!
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: You’ve probably noticed we talk a lot about goals, deadlines, and benchmarks. To tell you the truth, it’s probably the least favorite part of my job.
But I also understand that unless we raise enough money, we won’t be able to continue educating, engaging, and mobilizing people effectively during map drawing.
As I’m locking in our next set of fundraising goals, I wanted to reach out and see if we could take this original goal over the finish line.
Will you make a one-time donation of $25? It would help us get closer to reaching our goal.
