Hi again!
Yesterday, we put out the call: We need to raise $5,000 before the end of the month to be on track to support our 2019 and 2020 candidates.
So many of you threw a few bucks (or more) our way, and I want to make sure we say another hearty thank you. That money goes right back into running this program the right way.
We've still got $3,600 to go by tomorrow at midnight -- today, could you ask someone in your life to help fund hundreds of local progressive candidates across the country? Even $15 or $25 can mean getting one more candidate into a race where they could change the way their community works for the better.
Thanks!!
Amanda

Hi there --
Last week, we mentioned we had raised about half of what we need to raise this year to get the basics of our program done. Seen another way: we've still got a long way to go, and we've got to make the most of the time we have left.
Before the month ends on Wednesday, we need to have raised another $5,000 online. Our 2019 candidates will need a massive wave of support from us come November, and we're up and running on our 2020 candidates, too. Saying no to requests for resources or endorsements breaks my heart, and I won't have it. So instead, I'm coming to this team.
Today, will you donate $15?
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
$5,000 in online-only money isn't a random number. It's what we believe (and know) this team can step up and do. If everyone who got this email gave a few cents, we'd be there in less than a day -- and then I could get back to telling you about our kick-ass candidates and alumni.
If you can, chip in a few bucks to help get to our goal before the end of the month.
Thanks!
Amanda
