For doing the same, and for the gentle reminder, for those who had been planning to but hadn’t yet got around to it in a busy week.

DU is such an amazing place, made up of amazing people. So glad that another member invited me to join this fantastic community.

Over 20 years and still going strong on a “pay as you can, when you can” basis. A place where even a dollar donation can make someone a star member for a year, with the bonus of feeling good knowing that you are contributing to keeping democracy alive.

Hopefully we can keep this at the top through Friday.

And the thought just occurred to me that if the “Tip bill” becomes tax law, then we should call all the fundraisers “tips”, lol.

Scrolling through this thread, I see several people I wish I could give Kudos to. It was a difficult decision to choose just one. Makes me wish Kudos were like hearts (based on donation amount) so I could give more than one!
