SMALL DONATIONS ALONE CAN’T DO IT - We are getting donations. The problem is that they are all very small. This is a major contributing factor to our recent funding struggles. We sincerely love every donation and every donor. However don’t expect the progress bar to move much if it’s five and ten dollar donations alone. RSN was built on $30 donations. Try to stay in that range if you can. Sincere thanks to all. / Marc Ash, Founder Reader Supported News
