On Feb. 1, I asked readers of NMPolitics.net to help me raise $12,000 to keep the site going. I’m pleased to announce today that NMPolitics.net has surpassed that goal!
In nine weeks, NMPolitics.net has raised $12,011.37 from 142 donors. That includes people from around the state and nation and from across the political spectrum. Some are well-known politicians. Others are citizens who read this site to stay informed about what’s going on with their government.
The average donation size during this year’s fundraising drive was $84.59.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Your support for NMPolitics.net is amazing. I believe firmly in the site’s mission of holding government and political leaders accountable through hard-hitting but fair reporting while also encouraging policy and political debate that promotes the common good. It’s inspiring to know that so many of you do as well.
If you’ve been meaning to donate but haven’t yet had a chance, NMPolitics.net will continue to accept contributions. You can give at nmpolitics.net/contribute.
Additional support is always appreciated. But right now, I’m simply celebrating the generosity you’ve shown during this fundraising drive.
And, as promised, I’ll be making $250 donations to the N.M. Foundation for Open Government and New Mexico First. I’ll let you know when that happens.
Thanks again. Without you, NMPolitics.net couldn’t exist.
