CounterCurrents: CC Fundraising Hits a roadblock. Plz listen to this concerned reader
Dear Friends,
After the last fundraising appeal went out 26th September, no significant contribution came in. I was in despair not knowing how to move ahead. Then this mail came from a concerned reader. I quote
"--Lakhs of readers and even lakhs of " likes!" But response moneywise, poor...sorry...I appealed to many, but only few responded, regret...shall pursue...
--Cant readers pay one dollar each? In India at least, English readers are mostly from those classes / sections who can pay,who buy many things, BUT response is too poor, lip sympathy being a trait....
--Internet made everything free reading, created what appears a 'phukat' offer that hides costs otherwise, netizens addicted and corrupted by Ads....
--Anyhow, pl. Renew your SOS appeal for one dollar each, or Rs 100 each in India...
say pl. pay up today before you read next posting! highlight it and then only explain ...
--You know better, but tempted to suggest out of concern..."
We have to raise another Rs 3.5 lakhs or $ 4000 to keep Countercurrents.org going for another year.
As the above reader suggested if each reader in this 10,000 strong mailing list contribute $ 1 or Rs 100, we can easily reach the target and keep Countercurrents.org strong.
Please, please join this collective endeavour to protect our dignity, human rights and most importantly our planet for the future generations.
