Woo-Hoo! Our 4th Quarter FReepathon is off to a great start, thanks to all of you who have made your donations in such a timely manner to help us try to complete this FReepathon this month, so that Jim can spend his time healing and recovering, instead of concerning himself with fundraising for the next 2 months! Jim is in the re-hab facility where is he learning to transfer himself. Once that part is completed, and provided he feels much better than he has these past couple of days, he should be set to go home in the very near future. Everyone, please understand, Jim's successful surgery was only the first step, albeit, the major one.
Get this! We already have 50 Donations of $100 or more and already have 21 New monthly Donors including 4 New $1-A-Day (or more) Donors! (Thank you so much DJMacWoW and TheOldLady for keeping the respective counts) And, at the pace we're going, we're averaging $2,000 per day in your awesome, generous donations! Thank you ALL very much!!!!
Now, about the $100 Donations and more! Every quarter, FReeper I_be_tc, challenges 300 FReepers to match her $100 donation. This Quarter, I kicked-off I_be_tc's $100 challenge to get things started, so please join me, if you possible can!
Please know, that $100. was a big stretch for me, but I want to try to get this FReepathon done quickly for Jim's sake; and I wanted you all to know that I'm not just asking you all to donate a little extra this time, I'm also donating more than my Monthly, as are the majority of Jim's FReepathon Team.
If you send in $100 or more per quarter, please send me a note (in Jim's temporary absence) and I'll add your screen name to the 300 Club Roster! And, please don't be shy about adding your name. We know you're humble and maybe even shy, but seeing your names on the Roster often times inspires others to join you!
Our New Monthly Donor Campaign is also rocking! We conduct this campaign because reliable Monthly Donations are an ideal way to support Free Republic. We already have 5 Very Generous FReeper Sponsors, Tijeras_Slim, upchuck, "somebody", Tijeras_Slim again, and Owen Kellogg for this Quarter's NMD Campaign!
All 5 FReeper Sponsors are donating $10.00 for each New Monthly Donor who signs up, so please consider Donating Monthly, if you can reliably do so! $15 a month is 50 cents a day. Please ask yourselves, "what is FR worth to you?" that you can reliably contribute every month?
Whether your donation is $5, $10, $20, $50, $100 or more, it all helps keep FR alive and is always sincerely and truly appreciated!!
In closing, I know, and we all know, that times are tough, unconscionably tough, but for Jim's sake, I'm asking you all to please dig deep and to please dig deep right away or as soon as you possibly can, so that Jim can have some peace of mind during his healing and recovery processes. You all know he wants to be here with us, and he is, whenever he's able.
In Jim's temporary absence, Just Amy, (whom you all know and adore) is posting the incoming. She is Jim's life-long, close friend and also his business partner and FR's bookkeeper. So please, let's get keep those donations coming in!
We Can Do This, provided We ALL pitch in right away.
Please always remember, $25 keeps FR ALIVE!!

Thank you all so very much!!
Thank you all so very much for your prayers for Jim.
Please continue to pray for Jim and his cherished family.
Thank you all so much for your donations!!!
YOU make Free Republic possible!!!
Our good Lord is listening and answering our prayers.
God bless and keep you all and everyone you love.

But we hear tell that long ago, when LAZ signed-up,
a Cow Jumped Over the Moon!!!
What surprises me most about the 300 Club is that most on that list really don’t post much. I also know that there are many who could be on the list, but choose not to, which is fine if that is their preference.
There are many of us (named and un-named) who are picking up the slack for a lot of FReepers who are unable to or will not donate. Times are especially tough right now financially for so many, and I understand why they can’t donate. But I get pi**ed at those who use this wonderful forum, have the resources to contribute, yet still refuse to help fund it.
A pox on them.
comment from prior thread ...
More prayers up, onyx. Hope to pledge more next week! Must talk to my better-half. She is my Master!
Forgot to add this above on other thread so will add here ... She's scary!
Dearest you, Rushmore Rocks! Thank you so much for permitting me to add your name! Perhaps now, you better understand the reasons I wanted to add your name. It’s both amazing and heartwarming to me that some on the Roster are wonderful awesome FReepers, whom like your pointed out, actually don’t post that much, but they most certainly support Free Republic!
God bless and keep every single one of them.
I can’t spend any time concerning myself with or about those who use Free Republic, have the resources to contribute, and still chose not to donate, but I hope and pray they’re a very small minority. We know, we couldn’t do the same.
Thanks so much again! God bless and keep you and everyone you love.
