FreeRepublic Fundraiser - IMPORTANT - FreeRepublic Needs Your Help! (Thread 19)

It will be very easy for you to say, "Well, I will do something, some day. When I can afford it, I am going to." But would you let an old "grad" tell you one thing now? Giving is a habit. Get into the habit now, because you will never be able to afford to give and contribute, thus to repay the obligation you owe to those people who made this college possible, if you wait until you think you can afford it. Start now regardless of how small, and in the days to come when you are confronted with demands for many worthwhile causes and charities I think you will find that you will give dutifully to all the worthy ones. But here and there you will pick one or two that will be favorites, and you can do no better than to pick this, your Alma Mater, because you will not only be repaying your own personal obligations, you will be making your contribution to the very process which has made and continues to keep America great.
This democracy of ours which sometimes we've treated so lightly, is more than ever a comfortable cloak, so let us not tear it asunder, for no man knows once it is destroyed where or when he will find its protective warmth again. - Ronald Reagan

Help keep the dream alive!

Imagine if there was no Free Republic... gasp!

- No Sore Loserman protests to save an election...

- No Washington Times Ad pushing Congress to Impeach...

- No exposing of traitorous public officials...

- No media watchdog to ferret out the bias...

- No Breaking News...

For these reasons and a thousand others, please support Free Republic

While the large donations are exciting, the small ones may be more treasured ...... they may actually be sacrificial. So don't be reluctant to give if your donation can only be $5 or $10 ..... those are vital to the success of FR. And bumps help, too! :-) - posted by WillaJohns -

FreeRepublic and Jim Robinson's finances

[BADJOE]

Other than legal we have no old bills. So we are doing this to run the quarter and pay what we can on the legal.

[Letitring]

We knew that. FOFL. Never a doubt here. :)

[tomkat]

darling gran,

i know you adore them, but the best way to make sure the little sweethearts
really wanna go to college is to invite them to go into debt to get there ...

$0.02

[grannie9]

Yes S, but what good will it do this time around?

[d14truth]

with 'lodwick' AND 'grannie9', you are up to 6 matchers?

Thank you so much, FReeople people, for supporting us OLD-TIMERS {;~).

[lodwick]

Need anything from Walgreen Drugs? Gott'a run to the store.

Whooooey! I leave for a couple of hours and it's gone from 16 to thread 19. Now I have to go back and see what I've missed. Catch up to you all later. Zip

[Alamo-Girl]

Here's another bump!

[grannie9]

I have Thomas, but are you there yet??? Between cars, insurance, clothes,....oh let's not go there...shall we?? It will give me a headache, and I'm having too much fun.

[Vermonter]

Thanks grannie!

[Vermonter]

Thanks A-G! Hope things are still OK on the home front.

[Topaz]

The legal is what I was referring to.

Let's wait until next week to decide, but if the stars are lined up right maybe we can hit $100,000!

[grannie9]

You're are entirely welcome Vermonter. Us northeners have to stick together.

I am having a very bad time posting. It's taking a full minute to post. Anyone know why, or how to fix it?

[Servant of the Nine]

grannie

It won't do any good this time. We'll just have to work you wimmins butts off to raise the money.

But after this, people will either start donating, or stop blathering and bloviating and flaming, when others on the thread mention their lack of support.

People will have to put their money where their mouths are.
They wouldn't have to put much, cause some don't have much, but someone who has hours a day to pontificate on FR and can't afford $10 / quarter, needs to be out working.

Your servant

[Mo1]

UN&^@^@%^@^BELIEVE ... Grannie .. would you believe JUST as I start my pings .. THEIR BACK .. GOOD GRIEF

Well I'll be back in a bit to ping and bump some more

And I see nothing from PA ... COME ON PEOPLE .. SHOW THE MONEY!!!

[grannie9]

I think a blowtorch to the innards might work better at this point. LOL

[Vermonter]

My bactracking shows that all of us who are doing pledges to new contributions currently are out $8. ($8 x 6 of us = $48 for FreeRepublic) We have 8 more hours to go.

[Alamo-Girl]

You're welcome! Here's another bump!!!

[grannie9]

The problem is....we don't which ones are which. Aggravatin, tisn it. Ayah!

[Letitring]

Thank you OLD TIMERS for supporting us FReeople. :)
