I’ve been preparing for next week’s debate this week, and I wanted to take a moment to explain how important this moment will be for our campaign.

But first, my team asked me to reach out this morning to ask if you’ll help us chip away at our $500,000 debate goal. If you can afford to, please pitch in a contribution below:

Our campaign is working hard every day to introduce ourselves to the country -- state by state, person by person -- for the first time. Next week’s debate is another opportunity to connect with even more undecided voters on a larger scale.

Millions of voters tuned in during the last debate to learn about the campaign and what we’re fighting for. Millions more will be watching next week and I want to be in the best place possible to make the case for our campaign.

That’s why I'm turning to you and I’m asking for your help.

Pitch in right now to help us reach our fundraising goal before the deadline. It means a lot to me personally. Wednesday’s debate will be here before we know it:

The stage will be crowded on debate night, so I’ll be fighting to break through the noise to make the case that our team is the strongest to take on Trump in 2020. With your help, I know we can make it happen.

For The People,

— Kamala Harris
