WILL RSN HAVE
A BUDGET TO CONTINUE ITS WORK? When an organization does not have a corporate
sugar daddy, or mommy, every fund-raising drive is the one the determines what
the budget will be going forward. That's bad because we always stay hungry, but
it's good because we always stay hungry. The logic of that is stark and
unavoidable. Truth: We love it this way. Be a Reader Supporter, it feels great!
Thank you all in advance. / Marc Ash - Founder, Reader Supported News

Elephants Make a Comeback
Celeste Hicks, Al Jazeera America
Hicks writes: "Lorna Labuschagne never tires of the excitement of seeing the continent's wild animals. But a plane trip over Chad's Zakouma National Park in late 2013 was a particularly remarkable moment for her and several colleagues who were working to save elephants in the Central African wilderness. Below, they spied at least 21 new elephant calves."

ARE WEALTHY
LIBERALS DONATING TO KEEP RSN ALIVE? This question came from a reader today.
It's a good question. I know some are. I know a lot more were when George W Bush
was around, that's for sure. I'm a Liberal, (old school, not neo). But it's a
good question. The vast majority of our support comes from small individual
donations. Those donors are the organization’s backbone - month in month out.
Larger donations, even as large as $100. help immensely when we can get them.
Thanks to all in advance. / Marc Ash, Founder Reader Supported
