Today's initial thread has dropped from BREAKING NEWS so I'm using this rare opportunity to hopefully make more of y'all aware of the importance of Donating Monthly!
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.

I’ll wager Louie has already ran at least 2 miles.
He Likes to run with the large dogs and he doesn’t give a damn about the ball or saucer they’re chasing.
I leaveA short leash on him so I can catch him when I want to leave. Funny how he likes to ignore me from the second we arrive.
9 PM here and I am so sleepy my head is trying to use the keyboard for a pillow. Don’t know why, but guess I will listen to my body music and go to bed.
Good Night ALL!
Yes, at Walgreens for sure!
AND, I have a Walgreens card!!
Lovely!
Did Louie get all tired or did you?
