Friends -
I will get right to the point:
Most candidates rely on $2,800 checks to fund their campaigns. Not Bernie.
We receive donations averaging $18, and the truth is that it's going to be hard to keep up with the big money donors trying to stop us.
So today we are asking everyone who hasn't contributed yet if they can make their first donation to help us keep pace. We are spending the money to help Bernie win, including by hiring up a large field organizing force on the ground and by running television and digital ads in key places.
Here it goes:
As you know, Bernie doesn't have a super PAC and our movement doesn't count on wealthy donors writing big checks.
Our single path to victory is from lots of people contributing what they can. So thank you for making a donation today. This is important.
In solidarity,
Faiz Shakir
Campaign Manager
