Friend, I always want to make sure that grassroots folks like you know exactly who I am and what I stand for. So here are a few important things to know about me:

1. Long before I was the proud senator from Georgia, I grew up with 11 brothers and sisters in public housing in Savannah. Although we were short on money, our family was long on love and faith.

2. I'm not a senator who used to be a pastor, I'm a pastor who's serving in the Senate! As a man of faith, I believe that my impact doesn't stop at the church door – that's where it starts.

3. Last year, this people-powered movement defied the odds and the millions of dollars in conservative spending to flip Georgia blue. We won by just 2 points in a historic runoff election, and I became the first Black U.S. Senator in the history of Georgia.

I'm determined to continue my work in the U.S. Senate to make sure every child can achieve their American dream just like I did. But I can't win this battle alone. The GOP is flooding this race with millions as polling shows me 2 points down. Whether I can fight back and win depends on generous grassroots supporters like you.

That's why I've got to ask: Will you please give $5 or more now to help me win in Georgia and defend the Senate for Democrats? Your donation will help us take on the GOP with just weeks to go until Election Day.

Thank you so much.

Rev. Raphael Warnock
