Two charitable donors have teamed up to allow all readers to join our “Double Your Donation” challenge and increase their giving amount. They are challenging us to double all donations under $50, up to a total of $2,000.
Additionally, to further acknowledge small donations, the challenge includes an additional element for the wealthy to help donate. The next $100 donation will also be part of the campaign, with a total of $3,000 matched. Please don’t delay any longer. Head over to the tip jar and pick up their sports offers!
However, while many supporters have generously funded this special fundraising drive, many of whom are first-time donors, and some who have already donated twice, we are concerned that this fundraising drive is still not at the level we need. The total amount of donations is small. If you still don’t have time, please help us out by donating. Go to the tip jar now Please help – every donation counts.
Many of our readers came to the site for links, comments, and information on a particular topic, but stayed for the chat. Readers tell us time and time again that Naked Capitalism’s comments section stands out and keeps them coming back. Where else can people with diverse backgrounds and experiences — subsistence farmers, homeless people, ride share drivers, students, retired chefs, ex-mercenaries, librarians, private equity professionals, lawyers, engineers of all stripes, health care managers, data experts, urban planners, Hollywood professionals, politicians, professional writers — connect and regularly exchange ideas?
It’s our socialist funding model that helps us maintain this diverse and critical community in the best sense of the word: we’ll always keep the site free to view and comment (the latter with as few restrictions as possible so that debate remains civil and grounded), but we ask that you support this effort in any way you can. Please donate to the tip jar To bring to life the online version of the best neighborhood bar/coffee shop. A confirmation from Rainlover:
Words cannot express how much NC has enriched my life. Reading the articles, especially the commentaries, has taught me how to argue logically and back up my arguments with evidence. It has also introduced me to many new sites and commentators, all of which I am extremely grateful for.
I am so glad your move was a success and I wish you, Lambert and your talented staff continued health and happiness.
Skip intro:
I’m glad I shared my good fortune. This site and community is worth more than just money.
Tom C says:
You will receive a check for $40.
I am really grateful to NC.
Thank you all for your support.
From TS, who has donated regularly:
All I can say is thank you. I have been living on a small fixed income for several years and I don’t even have internet service because of inflation.
Thank you for providing a forum for rational discussion, at considerable risk to yourself.
Stay safe, enjoy the show, and if I buy the right lottery ticket….
For those already on such tight budgets, some readers are adding extra gifts. From Kevin C:
Check in the mail – $125.00 USD
That’s $100 from me and $25 from anyone who wants to donate but can’t.
And Sporble:
I couldn’t turn down the match, so I sent my first $100 a few days ago, then another $200.
In a way, I’m embarrassed: $300 is a “tiny” amount when you consider the blood, sweat, and tears, and the wisdom, humor, and true sense of community/solidarity that North Carolina gives to all of us.
That being said, for me it’s impossible to put a price on “what NC brings to the table.”
We encourage you to donate whatever you feel comfortable with.
NC is valuable.
You can contribute Pay here by check, debit card, credit card or PayPalIf you’d like to donate by check (we love checks!), please email us at yves@nakedcapitalism.com with “Small Donations Challenge” in the subject line.
We are grateful for the generosity of our new donors and hope that our readers will respond in kind.
Even if $50 is a lot of money, don’t hesitate to donate. Use this challenge to double your donation up to that amount. Every donation helps us reach our goal.
And another important way to help is to tell others about our work, either directly to your friends, family and colleagues, or through social media such as Facebook and Twitter. So we would love you to help us raise funds for our Prince Charming Support Pair in any way you can.
