It is never easy asking for funding but it is something
that non-profit groups have to do occasionally.
VotersUnite.Org is not a project of Pew or one of the
big-money organizations and we don’t want to be. We like
being able to make our own decisions and not having to make
those decisions based on a position of a sponsoring
organization. However, this freedom means we have to do our
own fundraising and we have to ask, hat in hand, for your
help. “Daily Voting News” is a near daily service
provided by VotersUnite free of charge to subscribers. I
have never taken a penny, beyond some expenses, for doing
this; not for over four years of gathering the news; and I
never will. We do, however, have overhead and we need help
with that. So, here I am doing what I dislike doing very
much, asking for help from you so we can keep doing this
work and keep VotersUnite.Org as one of the premier
informational election integrity organizations. Please help
us out with a tax-deductible
donation. ...
