We have until May 1 to hit our April fundraising campaign goal of reaching 16,000 sustaining monthly donors.
And I’ll be honest: To reach that goal, we’re going to have to send a LOT of emails asking you to donate. We know that these emails can get pretty annoying. We don’t like sending them, and we’re pretty sure you don’t love getting them.
But we need to reach this goal, because since Joe Biden’s election, we’ve lost more than 4,000 recurring monthly donors. And that’s a big problem.
So as we’re kicking off this push, we want to make you an offer: If you donate right now, you won’t get any more fundraising emails for the rest of the campaign.
If you’ve saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Recurring donors are absolutely essential to our funding model. They not only provide a significant portion of our budget each month, but they also allow us to plan and budget for the future. Even if you only give $5 or $10 a month, it makes a huge difference.
But even with The Intercept’s large and loyal readership, so many have struggled through the coronavirus pandemic that they’ve been forced to cut back on giving, leaving us with a hole in our budget.
That’s why we need to reach this goal. It’s not some aspirational “wouldn’t it be nice” kind of thing. This is funding we’re counting on and budgeting for.
So instead of waiting until the end of the campaign to donate while we flood your inbox with ask after ask, we have a better offer. Donate now, and we’ll take you off our fundraising list for the rest of the campaign.
No urgent reminders. No nagging follow-ups. Just the groundbreaking investigative journalism you count on from The Intercept.
Donate today, and we’ll stop sending you these fundraising emails and get back to our journalism.
