Update, 10/14/08 – Well … another “zero dollar day.” And a toothache too! I’m going to take those two things as a cue for keeping it short and sweet: We’re at $2742.13. We’re going for $5,000. More = better. See you tomorrow - TLK

Dear readers,

Earlier this year, I told you that RRND/FND would be moving to a “twice-a-year” fundraising schedule — and we’re keeping our word. We’ve even waited almost a month past mid-year to start our first 2008 drive. But now it’s time.

The goal is $5,000, and we’ll keep plugging until we reach it (even if that means extending into our year-end fundraiser, which we’d certainly prefer not to do!).

You can support “the freedom movement’s daily newspaper” (and our offshoot publications — 2nd Amendment News Digest, Liberty Action News Digest and Progressive News Digest) in any of several ways:

One-Time Payments Online

We accept credit cards and direct donations via PayPal(tm).

Become a Subscribing Contributor!

[Note: All subscription payments received during the fundraiser will be credited toward its total]

RRND Daily Reader ($2.50/month)	RRND Subscriber ($5.00/month)
RRND Supporter ($10/month)	RRND Patron ($20/month)

Other Options

If you prefer to support RRND/FND through the International Society for Individual Liberty, to target your contribution to this project. Please drop me a line so that I can thank you and add your contribution to our total (ISIL doesn’t send us a daily report). If you’d like to send a check, money order, cash or other valuable thing via US Snail, again, write me so I can send you the address and instructions.

And Now For Something Completely Different

Would you like to see NO MORE RRND/FND fundraisers for nearly a year? So would we … so here’s a “side bet.”

Up-front disclaimer: This mid-year fundraiser WILL continue until the goal is met, even if that’s some time next year (hopefully it will be some time next month!).

But, we’re running a simultaneous “contingent pledge drive” through Fundable.Com to raise ANOTHER $5k … and if we make it, our next fundraiser won’t be until at least mid-2009.

It’s a simple concept: You pledge the amount of money you’re willing to contribute to that second $5k. If we raise $5k in pledges like yours, you pay. If we don’t, you don’t. That simple. Click here to make your pledge.

We didn’t make the Fundable.Com goal … but we’ll set a new project of this type up Real Soon Now.

Yours in liberty,
