Woo hoo!! Our 4th Quarter FReepathon is now underway!!
We need your continuing support to keep FR on the air.
FR is funded solely by contributions made by the liberty loving patriots who enjoy and use it.
We are beholden to no political party.
No advertisers, no outsiders, no sugar daddies, no corporate string pullers.
This means no commercial ads. No annoying pop-ups. No ad tracking. No mail campaigns. No spam. No one trying to control us.
Definitely no government subsidies or tax breaks.
We are self-funded, fiercely independent and enjoy our freedom to speak plainly in the support of God, family, country, liberty!!
But we cannot exist without you.
Every donation counts no matter how big or small. If you can donate $5, $10, $20, $100 or more, it would be greatly appreciated.
Your loyal support makes Free Republic possible and your continuing participation makes FR the number one pro-life, pro-family, pro-small government, pro-defense conservative forum on the Net!!
And were going to need FR now more than ever to combat the current crop of Marxists and progressives who have infested our government and public institutions and who are dead set on destroying the final remnants of our cherished constitution and our precious God-given liberty!!
Please click the secure server link above or donate by mail to: Free Republic - PO Box 9771 - Fresno, CA 93794
Make it a monthly if you can. We have some very generous FReeper sponsors kicking in an extra ten bucks for every new monthly signed up. And we have 6 new monthlies so far this quarter.
Or send in a hundred dollars or more per quarter and join I_be_tcs growing list of 300 Club patriots. I_be_tc sends in $100 per quarter and challenges 300 others to do the same. If we could get 300 FReepers to send in $100 per quarter, these FReepathons would complete much faster. And we have received 15 donations of $100 or more so far this quarter.
Please get your donations in early so we can wrap this baby up within 30 days.
Thank you all very much!!
God bless.
I was in 4 stores yesterday that asked me to donate for breast cancer, St. Judes, Injured Veterans, and Local Policeman injured by a criminal.
I bet today it will be flood victims and college shooting families. The phone rings at least twice a day with requests for donations. My email is full of requests and repeated requests from several candidates, Conservative groups, NRA causes, and even local candidates are now starting their 2016 fundraising programs. Tonight there will be requests and a 50/50 raffle at a meeting to provide weekend food for children.
I have had to give up attendance at Lincoln Day and Constitution Day Banquets for several years. $65 and $75 is just impossible. Conventions and Teaching Sessions held by many of our favorite groups are also out of the question.
I am afraid that my, and others, charitable spirit is being greatly stretched at this time. I am getting hardened to requests and learning to say NO, THANK YOU. I have to hang up before callers can launch into their written script.
Maybe other FReepers are feeling “protective” of their funds too. It will make the task harder and harder for you.
SS El Faro's namesake (The San Felipe del Morro Castle Lighthouse in San Juan, Puerto Rico):
UGH. You are getting “it” much worse and much more often than poor me. My landline is listed in the telephone book and I’ll wager yours is too. I have learned to say, “Sorry, I am a very poor widow,” and I immediately hang up. I realize that I might be inviting danger by the widow info, but I can tell by the area codes that the calls originate out of my immediate area.
I like to choose my charities. I don’t appreciate telephone solicitations and I sometimes relate that fact to the more insistent or pushier callers....LOL.
Thanks.
Hi “SWAMPY”!
Are you getting out with your camera anymore?
Dalmatian & 300 Club Bump. Did you count them, are there 101 there. ;-)
Woo-hoo! I just whacked my plastic this morning for my Quartely contribution.
Thanks for all you do, Jim.
LOL.
Well heck! I should have posted that graphic 3 times then edited, but I don’t know how!
But we hear tell that long ago, when LAZ signed-up,
a Cow Jumped Over the Moon!!!
