Racing
to the finish line
One last hurdle to jump
Our fundraising
is going much better – thank you! – but we still
aren't there. And we aren't kidding when we say that failure
to meet our goal of $60,000 will have to mean cutbacks in
the coverage and services you are used to. We'll have to make
cuts in our already minuscule staff. We live on a very tight
budget, and every penny of our projected income is spent on
the basics: a cutback, no matter how little, has a big impact,
and – well, let's just say it won't be pretty.
Yes, we've
averted utter catastrophe – thanks to the generosity of our
readers, who responded to the emergency appeal we made on
Friday – but now we need to avert the kind of cutbacks that
would seriously impair our ability to bring you the best antiwar
news and views on the Internet.
We'd like
to be able to continue to upgrade the site – but we won't
be able to do that if we don't make our goal all the way to
$60,000.
The War
Party never lacks for funds, and the Peace Party – that's
us – is continually on the edge of bankruptcy. Is this the
natural order of things? It doesn't have to be that way. Your
contribution is tax-deductible – so why not do it? If you
can determine whether your money goes for a new bunker-buster
bomb or to Antiwar.com,
why choose the former?
Help put
us over the top – and ensure that we continue to give you
the kind of Web site you've come to expect: give as much as
you can, as soon as you can – contribute
today.
