Adopt A FReeper

Unlike the federal government, which has the power to steal money from you to pay for programs and policies that you don't support, Free Republic relies on the voluntary donations from it's members.

While there is already a large number of FReepers and lurkers who donate on a regular basis, either monthly, quarterly or a generous yearly donation, it's not enough to cover FR's operating expenses. There are also FReepers who would like to donate, but just don't have the resources because they are temporarily unemployed, living on a fixed income, have on-going medical expenses or other family obligations.

I will make a $25.00 donation on behalf of another FReeper who would like to give, but just can't right now. Are there any other FReepers out there who are willing to give just a little more? I'm asking you to step forward and commit to sending a small donation, $5, $10, $20 or more, in the name a fellow FReeper who doesn't have the funds right now.

What you can do:

If you have a few extra dollars, post your pledge here or put "Adopt a FReeper" in the comment box on donations page.

If you're a FReeper who would like to donate, but money is tight, please post here to let us know. You can also FReepmail me and I will try to match you with another FReeper who has indicated they are willing to send in a few extra dollars.

I have adopted #27-—made a pledge to donate for them.

[hoosiermama]

I can’t remember who I “adopted” last quarter. Would like to do the same this time. Jim, just raise my monthly contribution to 30/m which puts me in the monthly and helps out FR and others....It’s a pass it on, when they’re back on their feet.

[penelopesire]

OK...I am sending in $50.00 more bucks tonight on behalf of the Obot trolls that never donate or stay very long for some strange reason....ROTFLOL!!

I will volunteer to be adopted!! I was once a monthly donor myself, but am on a fixed income, and things are getting ever increasingly tight, and doesn’t appear to be getting better any time soon.
