We need the stewardship of 5,000 Free Republic members to insure the continuation of the Free Republic Life Form!
Jim Robinson said in yesterday's post: "My projections are that our regular monthly expenses for next year will be running in the neighborhood of $22,000 per month, or approximately $264,000 total for the year. This means we will need to raise approximately $66,000 per quarter."
If 5,000 Free Republic members who believe in paying their own way and that no free lunch ever exists, pledge $5/month. Jim's goals and needs will be quickly surpassed!
5,000 good stewards of Free Republic pledging $5/month will total $75,000 per quarter. That would allow Jim/John a little breathing room!
Many of us donate more per month than that. So please don't reduce your donation. We just need 5,000 regular pledgers to make things easier for Jim.
Are there 5,000 good Stewards out there who can afford $5/month to keep alive the Free Republic Life Form?
One way to afford this is to cancel your subscription to your left wing fish wrap or bird cage liner. Donate half of that monthly cost to your favorite charity and the rest to Free Republic. If you do this, you remove your money from the enemies of America and invest it with the friends of America, Free Republic! That would be a double winner for America!
Become one of the 5,000 Freepers who believe that there is no Free Republic lunch and that only parasites want something for free! Sign up for $5/month on a monthly auto payment plan!
Besides the quanitative advantages like saving money by cancelling subscriptions to left wing propaganda fish wraps and mags, the opportunity to learn each day is incredible for all us!
The cumulative wisdom, vast histories re life's learning experiences, skills developed over the year and great communication skills of our fellow freepers is awesome!
Each day that I spend an hour or so learning from my peers at Free Republic is incredible. The interaction and sometimes reply fights enable us break out of the boxes that our minds normally operate in.
This learning experience is vital for old grandparents like me. I truly envy the young Freepers who have this great Free Republic Life Form to learn from, to ask questions about what is happening and then to develop the interaction skill required to interact on Free Republic. Their educational gains on Free Republic will probably exceed any learning experience at a left wing university!
I see the Free Republic Life Form as the greatest university in the world to really learn about life, the problems in life and how to overcome those problems in life!
Great, I would just add this small change, ""Giving monthly is like giving blood. It gives ongoing life to the Free Republic Life Form.
To those not familiar with Dog Gone, he is one of Free Republic's residence experts re our nation's energy problems. Dog Gone shares his expertise with those of us who follow the energy crisis in California. His sharing of his expertise is just one of many who help us to learn each day at Free Republic University for conservatives!
"Free Republic needs a constant infusion of cash to keep the Free Republic Life Form alive, viable and to grow. If we believe in Free Republic, we must donate each month or quarterly to keep this incredible life form alive... Good stewardship is what this world needs, not good intentions. Good conservative stewards will insure that the Free Republic Life Form continues to grow, be viable and thrives!"
The Free Republic Life Form continues to grow -- A $5 per month "infusion" will make a difference!!
Thank you Nan. I'm so glad that your are now a survivor from Laz Math! You have joined the rest of the Freeper World re basic math, not Laz Math.
Thanks for becoming a regular monthly donor on top of your recent quarterly donation!
Hey, I've been trying -- I've been carpet-bombing this thread and the Fundraising thread with "Bumps" all morning!!! ;-)
Let's Roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And to BLOW up BADJOE's COMPUTER!!!!!!!!!!
it would be interesting to know where the average monthly donation figure
currently stands...
i'm carrying the tab for a couple, um, freeploaders, and
i will increase my monthly when i get these darned med bills paid off
and you can also put me down, right now, to help pay for a new puter
for BADJOE after his blows up. let's roll.
You get those medical bills paid off and your family healthy before you worry about paying for more Freep Loaders!
Thanks for being on our side!
