Here's the good news: Since Elizabeth emailed you, we've seen an incredible turnout from our supporters working hard to get this campaign back on track for the end of the month.
But here's the bad news: We're still slightly short of where we need to be to finish the year strong.
With only a few weeks left before our next big fundraising deadline, any contribution you make now could have an incredible impact on the future of this movement.
Our campaign is built brick-by-brick by grassroots donors and we're so close to reaching our goal of one million individual donors. So we're asking:

I'm running to be the best president that money can't buy.
So I'm not hosting any fundraisers where you can only meet me if you can write a big check. And I'm not taking any money from Washington lobbyists, corporate PACs, or PACs of any kind.
You'll always know that I'm fighting for you — not for any powerful special interest with deep pockets.
But our grassroots campaign is up against a big test. After the end of this month, we'll release a public report on how much we've raised in the past three months and how many people have chipped in to own a piece of our campaign.
Look, I'll just be blunt: We need those fundraising numbers to be as strong as possible, and we're behind where we want to be to hit our fundraising goals.
When I ran for office for the first time, not very long ago, I had a lot to learn.
But here was the first — and most important — lesson I got: Nobody does this on their own.
I'm grateful down to my toes for everyone who knocks on doors, makes phone calls, texts their friends about our new plans, hosts debate watch parties, and chips in $3 at a time. For everyone who makes this campaign their own. For everyone who's in this fight all the way.
If — and only if — we fight side by side, we can beat the big banks, the fossil fuel giants, the huge pharmaceutical companies — everyone who's been rigging the rules and pulling the strings so our economy and our government only work for the wealthy and well-connected.
We can end Washington corruption, rebuild the middle class, and save our democracy. But only if we keep growing our grassroots movement with grassroots donors in D.C. and across the country.
