Freepers did an OUTSTANDING job in Q1 when Free Republic had to collect almost $20,000 in TEN DAYS to make the budget! Many donated even though it 'hurt' and some FReepers even donated TWICE to get us across the finish line - we couldn't have made it without that kind of loyalty and generosity. Amazing. I thank God for blessing us with FR, Jim and Chris, and the FReepers who get the job done. As a rule of thumb, I guesstimate collecting at least $1000 per day in the FReepathon would reduce emergency collections. SO looking at Q2, I see we're on day 30 and we've collected about $21,000 (THANKS TO EAGER FREEPERS!). If we can catch up to our day count (around $30,000) before we get too much farther into the quarter it would certainly reduce the 'excitement' of trying to get 'er done.
The Biden economy has made it harder on FReepers and yet FReepers persevere in working to Make America Great Again. If you plan to donate this month and just haven't taken the step yet, could you put in your donation today to see if we can get closer to our $1K per day to keep the emergency collections away? Some plan to donate later in Q2 and that is wonderful; my suggestion is only for those who are able to donate now. For most donors, the money comes in, whenever it can come in, and that has kept FR alive for many, many years. or by or by mail to: Free Republic, LLC - PO Box 9771 - Fresno, CA 93794 May God continue to bless Free Republic and those who call FR home. THANK YOU, FREEPERS! |
