> 20% LifeSiteNews moves into the last week of its summer campaign with a steep mountain to climb if we are to reach our necessary goal of $100,000. With only 7 days to go, we have not yet reached even 20% of our goal! No doubt many readers have been away on holidays since the campaign launch on July 5 and are not even aware that our crucial summer campaign is underway. Due to circumstances beyond our control we were not able to start the campaign in June as originally planned. If you have been away and are now home from holidays please take time to review the special letters, Gala Revealed a Lot About Who We Are, CNN Singles Out LifeSiteNews , It’s Finally Here: Video Premier, and Narnia, Reepicheep, and the Culture War. Each one of these is full of important and interesting information about LifeSiteNews. If you are relatively new to LifeSiteNews, please read the special articles noted above and consider making your first donation. We really do need more of our readers to join in offering support. Just to let you know, there is no one large donor or organization financially backing this mission. We operate thanks entirely to the generosity of many individual readers, like you, who keep us going from one quarterly campaign to the next. To those of you who have already donated, thank you. You make cultural change a reality when you give the gift of truth by keeping LifeSiteNews operational. For those who have not yet donated, we ask that you consider the most generous donation you can make right now. (Click Here to Donate) Because of YOUR support of this work, the pro-life and pro-family movement has been effective in changing the national discourse regarding culture of life issues. In just the past few months: - Our breaking coverage with reaction to the Obamacare mandate was linked on the very top of the DrudgeReport, the internet’s most popular news aggregator, sending a massive influx of traffic and interest to LifeSiteNews.
- The following day we were top linked AGAIN with our report on pro-life leaders reaction to the mandate “accommodation”.
- Our news coverage of Melinda Gates’ controversial efforts to raise billions of dollars for contraceptives to be dispersed in third-world countries has recently led CNN to address the issue.
- Our coverage of the continuing work by pro-life organizations to defund Planned Parenthood was spotlighted on Fox News.
- Our coverage of the horrific stories coming out of China as a result of their one-child policy has made its way into an address of the US House Committee on Foreign Affairs by the pro-life organization “Women’s Rights Without Frontiers”
We recently released the full-length version of the video that contained LifeSiteNews’ history, commentary by staff and pro-life and pro-family leaders, and a look to the future of this organization. If you haven’t seen it yet, it is well worth the watch! Those of you who have been with us for a long time know just how important the work of LifeSiteNews is to the culture of life movement. We thank you for helping us reach the milestones we have reached in the past 15 years. By helping LifeSiteNews give the gift of truth, you play an indispensable role in helping turn the tide in this battle to restore a culture of life and family. (Click Here to Donate) A financial gift to LifeSiteNews gets incredible results for the dollars spent. We are very much like Narnia's Reepicheep, (see Hilary White's article) but even he needed cheese to survive. Thank you for your support. May God bless you, Steve Jalsevac Managing Director LifeSiteNews.com | |
