Readers have responded generously to our last appeal, to meet our final fundraiser goal of $45,000 for more original reporting and to surpass our new donor target of 1500 contributors. We’re now at 1407 donors! We have nearly nine hours left. Can you push us over the top?
>Since our last update, only a bit over hours ago, you’ve gotten us closer to our final financial target. We are now at $43,960, closing in on our goal of $45,000 for original reporting! This uptick in the closing hours is gratifying, since it confirms how much the Naked Capitalism community values this work and wants this site to get even better.
Remember ever dollar now goes for original reporting!
Will you be the one who hits one of these last goals by going to our Tip Jar?
We have nine hours left. Our 2024 fundraiser closes at midnight Pacific time. Can you help us keep punching above our weight? Whatever you can give, $5, $50, or $5,000 all helps get us to these final goals and give you more original reporting (along with mordant wit, great sidebar chat and sweet animals)!
Readers are chiming in. From CanCyn:
NC’s amazing content is the first reason I visit but I so appreciate the well moderated commentary and the broad knowledge of the erudite and funny commentariat.
I sometimes imagine what a world we might have if most sites did the hard work of maintaining a commentary section in the manner of NC.
Kudos and blessings to you all. May the coffers soon be over-flowing.
And Shaun D:
I have sent 500 dollars.
Please keep up the good work.
As mentioned a long time ago, even though my political views are not aligned at all in terms of your site, I greatly appreciate the honesty in reporting and the efforts you and your staff make especially with the comment section.
Yours is the only site where I have read the comments
And Candide:
THANKS for everything it takes to sustain the community NC has made possible.
Wish we could send a lot more than the $10 check that’s on its way!!!
Every dollar you give now goes to support more original reporting. And even though we’re delighted to have raised over $40,000, consider how modest that is compared to newsroom budgets, let alone that of the think tanks whose output we regularly take down.
Make a high-leverage investment in taking apart carefully crafted narratives and exposing the distortions that help support looting and policies that serve the rich at expense of the rest of us.
Be one of the last to push our fundraiser over the top. Let’s see if we can get to 1500 donors and provide even more funding for original reporting before the close of this effort, midnight PDT. Every donation helps get us towards our goals and make this site even better.
There are multiple ways to give. The first is the fundraiser page, where you can use a debit card, a credit card or a PayPal account (the charge will be in the name of Aurora Advisors).
You can also send a check (or multiple post-dated checks) in the name of Aurora Advisors Incorporated to
Aurora Advisors Incorporated
PO Box 110105
Brooklyn NY 11211-0105
Please also send an e-mail to yves@nakedcapitalism.com with the headline “Check is in the mail” (and just the $ en route in the message) to have your contribution included in the total number of donations.
Again, I’m deeply gratified by this response from readers. Lambert, Nick, Conor, KLG and I want to give a big thanks to all of you who have donated already. If you can give a little, $5, $10, $50 or $5,000, it all has an impact. You are investing in creating a different debate, a different vision, and a different, more just society.
Did a last minute, thanks!
Donated! I love your work, Yves, despite my perma-moderation and regular slapping. This place is cheaper than a BDSM club and the commentary is better. :-)
I’m actually getting flashbacks from the Bernie campaigns now… ‘we only have five hours left for the FEC deadline’.
A bit more scratch.
I’ve been thinking all day about making another donation, as I realize Scott Ritter is right in saying here https://www.youtube.com/live/d9zJHFbl9SE , starting at 49:20, that we must move now to defend our constitutional rights and make common cause with those who are willing to fight for free speech and a free press. So off to the tip jar I go and THANK YOU Naked Capitalism for being strong in this moment, I’m so glad you exist!!
“You are investing in creating a different debate, a different vision, and a different, more just society.”
Amen.
Just donated. One of the few sites where I feel part of a like-minded community. Thanks for all your great work!
