*THE HUGE IMPORTANCE OF OUR SUSTAINER SUBSCRIBERS: We sincerely appreciate every contribution we receive, large or small. The monthly donor Sustainer-Subscriber contributions however are the ones that are doing the most to change the way Reader Supported News functions. Those dependable monthly contributions, even as little as ten dollars a month, significantly reduce the amount of money we need to raise through our funding drives on a monthly basis. That's huge. This month, due to the continued strength of the Sustainer-Subscriber signups, we only need to raise 27K during our August funding drive. By comparison one year ago, for August of 2013 we needed to raise 45K. The difference has been, the new monthly donors. The advantage to the donor is that you no longer receive the fundraising emails. Please seriously consider becoming a Reader Supported News Sustainer-Subscriber. / Marc Ash - Founder, Reader Supported News*

Okay, I'll make a donation.
