Tired of FReepathons?
We are too!
Unfortunately, even with our successful New monthly Donor Campaigns, we still fall short of "Donating Members"
needed to complete our fundraisers within 30 days or even 60 days!
We need to remedy this sad and sorry situation now!
FRee Republic needs EVERY Member to Donate: $5, $10. $20 or more.
PLEASE MAKE YOUR DONATION SOMETIME TODAY!

GO MONTHLY IF YOU POSSIBLY & RELIABLY CAN!!
Thanks very much ... God bless & keep you all.
MONTHLY DONORS
(Just the Facts)
I donate in 2 payments per year very close to the amount that $10.00 a month would bring.
Why is monthly better?

On an individual basis like that, it’s hard to see a difference. But, in general, the larger the Monthly total, the quicker the fundraiser.
For example, if we could get our Monthly figure over $15,000 then they would represent $45,000 total for the quarter. That’s over half of our goal.
If my math is correct, with $15,000 in Monthlies, we could possibly be ending our fundraisers in under 30-40 days every quarter.
If we have a new fundraiser starting with a goal of $88,000 and it gets to about $30,000 (in three weeks or so) we could accrue the $45,000 in Monthlies and our new total would be $75,000 and there’d be only about $13,000 left to go.
With a big push we could probably raise that in a week to ten days and we’re done.
In other words, at $15,000 per month in Monthlies, our fundraisers would complete in half the time they take now.
If we could get to $20,000 per month in Monthlies they’d probably take less than three weeks to complete.
*If we could get to $30,000 per month in reliable Monthlies, we wouldn’t need fundraisers at all.
Currently, we have about 630 Monthlies totaling approx $11,000 per month or about $17.50 per monthly donation.
To get to $15,000 in Monthlies we’d need to keep those we have and add about 225 New Monthly Donors at about the same average.
A lofty goal, but doable.
