[1]Women's March
Hey John, I’m
Kelsey Jackson — I lead our finance team at Women’s March.
I was going through our latest fundraising numbers and I wanted to give
you a quick update before our midnight deadline. Right now we are $2,198
short from reaching our $15,000 Women’s History Month goal.
Closing this gap is critical to make sure our team has the resources we
need to to organize nationally and on the local level to defend our
reproductive freedom, remove seditionists like Ted Cruz from Congress, and
provide free organizing trainings for Women’s Marchers. If you think your
donation won’t make much of a difference in helping us reach our goal,
please believe me when I say it absolutely can.
Our average donation this month is $15.59. Grassroots donations from
thousands of folks is how we’ve always been able to fuel this movement.
It’s how we defeated Trump and it’s how we’re going to continue pushing
for transformative change in our country.

we race to reach our goal by midnight tomorrow.

$15.59 might not seem like a lot of money, but please believe me when I
say that there’s so much power in this number.
It’s powerful evidence of the women-led movement we’re building. We’re
creating a movement that represents the many and not the few. Together, we
are building the grassroots power we need to continue removing failed
leaders from office and make progress toward the feminist future we
deserve.
Here are just a couple of examples of the work we’ve been able to lead
thanks to donations from our supporters:
* Organize nationwide marches and mobilizations to mobilize against
attacks on reproductive freedom.
* Women2Women Circles are local organizing collectives happening in
communities all across the country. Circles all over the country are
helping to register voters and put pressure on our politicians to
defend abortion access. Today, over 600 Women's Marchers have signed
up to host a circle!
* We recently hosted our second ever Feminist Fundamental Short Course!
In this free training, we trained over 200 active Women’s March
volunteers how to use their organizing power to create change locally.
* Our team is gearing up to target vulnerable Republicans this election
year with our organizing power. This movement is the reason why we
defeated Trump and we know that together we can make sure his most
loyal allies in Congress are removed from office too.
Doing this kind of work is critical if we want to continue turning the
tides of our country. But here’s the harsh reality we face: According to a
report by the Women's Philanthropy Institute, only about 1.6% of total
charitable giving in the U.S. goes towards nonprofits like ours focused on
harnessing the power of women.
That’s why this Women’s History Month we set an ambitious goal to make
sure we have funding for the plans we have ahead and keep scoring big
grassroots wins by and for women.
Whether you give a couple bucks, $15, or even $100 — your donation has the
power to create a direct impact on what happens next for our country.

before our midnight deadline tomorrow?
